I'm sending this from my iPad right now, which I bought knowing full well this.
Interestingly, the production cost of one of these is about $250au to build but I paid nearly $700.
Shows you how much money they make. I can't help but wonder if people who spend massive amounts on apple computers arn't being taken for a bit of a ride?
Don't like the price ? .. Then don't buy one … the choice is still yours.

The price is what it really takes to obtain a consistently stable, reliable platform. The components all have common sources regardless of the logo the product bears … the country of assembly is not what determines the quality of the product … quality processes do. These can be applied anywhere .. by any appropriately trained personnel.
