A 25-year-old Chinese workerfor Foxconn, Sun Danyong, has reportedly committed suicide afterfinding out that a fourth-generation iPhone prototype he was entrustedwith went missing. According to DigitalBeat, this story is mainly meantto show how Apple's secretive ways put a large amount of pressure allthe way to the bottom of its international supply chain.
Sun worked for the electronics manufacturing giant Foxconn inthe city of Shenzhen, Guangdong province in China. According to thenews, he had to ship a number of iPhone prototypes from Foxconn toApple, when he discovered that one of the devices was missing. Thissupposedly happen between Thursday, July 9, when he got 16 prototype phones from the Foxconn factory, and Monday, July 13, when he reported the missing handset.According to a series of local newspapers, including SouthernMetropolis Daily, on Wednesday, three of the Foxconn employees wentsearching through his apartment, an action made illegally, based on theChinese law. Moreover, there seem to be a series of rumors pointingtowards the fact that Sun has been detained and physically abusedduring the so-called investigation. He committed suicide on Thursday, alittle after 3 a.m., when he jumped out of a window in his apartmentbuilding, as showed by the surveillance videos.
It seems that the pressure of keeping the secrecy on upcoming Apple devices is high, and the company is asking its businesspartners not to unveil any details on the handsets they are working on.The missing prototype is supposedly a fourth-generation iPhone that alot of bloggers were hungry to learn details about, especially sinceall that was available so far was only a series of rumors.
Apple is putting a great amount of pressure on its business partners tokeep the secrecy on its devices, as it is trying to maintain theelement of surprise so as to manage to drive salesand its stock price higher. Taiwan-based Foxconn is manufacturingApple's iPhones and iPods, and a possible leak would have a negativeimpact on the partnership between the two companies, hence the pressureon Foxconn's workers. More details on this can be found here.

I mostly use the internet for almost everything except business. By the way I'd figure Porn will be the option with the most votes.

I agree with you Thomas, but why can't you just post a link of your Bebo/Facebook/Twitter account on your AboutMe page?

I was reading an article on the internet saying that if you take an airplane and drive it in the NW side of the state and fall into the water and drown, more territory would be available to obtain. So is this even true? I want to know. Oh and I've read this on GTA Wikia.com

I wanted to say a whole bunch of swear words but. Shut up Ivan. Do you even know if the Slim version of the PS3 is heavy or light weight? Why in almost every topic you post in you make some piss ass reply to me?

iPhone 3GS has made a big improvement. Steam just shut the hell up. Your the only one in this topic against the iPhone. I like it now, back then it sucked balls. Its a good phone, and the Applications can come in handy.

Uh, just run the Balla's over. lol

I have this game. I bought it like two years ago. Man I feel like an idiot, Raybob can I hit you up and go for multiplayer?
-
No? What glitch(es) are you talking about?
And deletion? wtf? and modding ps2? wtf?
I hope you mean patching, which doesn't happen anyways.
You can mod a PS2 Version of the game, but I don't think there are any patches for the PS2. Glitches just happen. A glitch could be a lag, or an error.

Ducking down never works. Try popping a wheelie. It always works, try it. If you pop a wheelie and just aim for the open door you'll get there I guarantee you.
Ducking helps. Motorbikes go way faster when you duck... The wheelie works when youre accelaratin
Uh... which makes you go faster, yes?
My mistake, both techniques work.
