Apple's 4 price collapse collapse

Hong Kong version iphone4 had a price avalanche some time ago. On the surface, it was because in the US version of the iphone4 jailbreak, unveiling unlocked software and the triple pressure of China Unicom's iphone4, JS was forced to “lower the arrogant head of the people”, however, This heavy smokescreen, the truth, was only in the daytime until today: a news from Kubidino (Apple headquarters) said that an Apple employee named Paul Shin Devine had been leaked to Asian suppliers for leaking the Apple iPhone. The price tag of the ipod product was sued by the federal jury for accepting commercial bribery.

Officials said Paul Shin Devine, who lives in Sunnyvale, was arrested on Sunday on charges of cyber fraud, money laundering, and commercial bribery.

Devine, 37, was charged with receiving up to $1.4 million in commercial rebates to provide Apple's suppliers in Asia with confidential information on related products. The supplier used this information to negotiate prices with Apple. Take the upper hand and let Apple's interests suffer huge losses.

"In the business world, Apple has always been committed to building lofty integrity and ethical standards," said company spokesperson Steve Dowling. "We have zero patience for shameful fraud from inside or outside the company!"

The official stated that a supplier named Andrew Ang in Singapore was also suspected of participating in this espionage. Ang has been included in the investigation list by the federal court. The official did not comment further on Ang. Devine has been arrested by the U.S. judiciary, but No further news was released. He will attend a court hearing in San Jose on Wednesday, US time.

So, the iphone4 that is poured out from Asian suppliers should have a much higher profit margin than the previous generation of iphone 3Gs, so there is a lot of room for decline. The author wants to tell Devine who has never met. "You have worked hard!" For the sake of the happiness of tens of millions of suppliers in Asia, you risked being cursed and reviled by the western society that has always attached importance to the integrity of your personality. The bribe ... 1.4 million US dollars, has led to the transformation of the fate of millions of Asian iPhone users, the entire mainland market is also shaking ... Talent ah! All the best!
