Why all the hate towards China from Engadget? Tone it down a little and let's learn to love a little more. Some clones from China are pretty damn good.
@rob I agree, if people take a look around their home, most of it is made in China. They work in horrendous conditions for 19hours a day for virtually no money so products are pirced at prices we can afford. People should be a bit more grateful. If a few bad eggs are making knock-offs then why does it bother you? They're not going to get rich off it and Apple aren't going to go bust from it. Making generalisations about a nation of over a billion people is not smart. If only people got so angry about illegal wars or third world hunger...
china = communists 'nuff said. Don't give me this boohoo they work in sweat shops. The same people that cry about their conditions don't actually have a solution. Do you want to go into China and topple the government so people can have 8 hour workdays? Right, thought so. Go back to your tofu and please stop playing the "its for the chinese kids" card.

I think the backlash is somewhat deserved, you can't run copying and undercutting everybody and expect to be loved
