Looks like the iPhone 4G is going to be a killer. Already one person dead.

Worker commits suicide after iPhone prototype goes missing.

After watching the movie Dark Matter it doesn't surprise me.

In the wake of the incident, officials from Foxconn issued a statement that included an apology. According to Shanghaiist, the section chief of the Central Security division "may have used 'inappropriate interrogation methods' such as searching Sun's house, holding Sun in solitary confinement and possibly beatings." In addition, a Foxconn spokesperson reportedly said the incident is an example of the company's "internal management deficiencies."

...even though it states further down in the article that it was likely he wasn't beaten, it still raises the question: all of this over an iPhone?!!?!?

Knowing someone died over it makes me want one even more. Like diamonds.
