Biddut ,   Bihar   (12.17.11)
Opens the path for Israelis to put spyware in each and every apple product. Makes you question why just after Steve's death. By the way, Steve is half Syrian.

I don't know which part of your comment is more baseless. Israelis make or develop components for nearly every computer on the market today. If you were avoiding others before because of supposed spyware, you've been taken by some sort of convoluted conspiracy theory. Also, jobs was adopted and never knowingly met his Syrian biological father. In addition, Syrian roots does not imply or guarantee anti-Israel sentiment. Sorry.
8. Apple will open factory in Gaza

9. How about an Apple store
zionist forever   (12.18.11)
iDigital is overpriced. An ipad in iDigital cost about 3 times more than it does in the US, its twice the price of the UK where VAT rates are 3.5% more expensive than Israel. Of course part of it is import taxes and some of it VAT but it still it seems alot more expensive than it should be. Give us a proper Apple store.
