In Hong Kong the scalpers depletes all Apple Store reserve quota every day. But the people there don't have a target to throw eggs to...
Yeah, they should riot over important issues, like L.A. does when the Lakers win the NBA championship.That looks bad. Sad that's over a phone![]()
The incentive to get an iPhone is strong. In NY, Asian "resellers" often wait outside the store overnight in large groups with cardboard boxes for bed and shelter.
These guys do know it's only a phone right?
fail to do a proper swot analysis before the launch, patch up later with a swat analysis.
Surprised they ain't throwing green apples...

they have tried various ways with the iPhones and the iPads. and nothing is working. Perhaps they should pull these products out of the stores for the first month of release and you have to order online with a credit card and an Apple ID. Or perhaps they could do it online ordering with pick up in stores for the US but no walking. That might stem the tide a little. Although it will still get them slammed that they are racist, hate poor folks etc because not everyone has a computer with which to place the order, you can't use cash online etc.

At this rate they should abandon selling the new 4s in physical stores in china for at least a while till the demand dies down a bit. Let all the crazed fans buy their 4s online. Much safer.
Its a frickin' phone people! Get a grip!
Huawei, Pantech, and ZTE will sell far more phones in China than Apple will.What happened to Android phones?
Don't they sell the Galaxy S II there ?
