10% of Samsung's spending goes to payroll for the production of their S III.

$2000 a month salary compared to Apple's $400 a month for Foxconn workers.

It's too perfect for me. Besides, the camo cover with the opening specifically to show off the Apple logo is just too grotesque to matter. If you're taking an iPhone into the 'wilderness' on some activity that would require camo, you're sure not going to leave openings in the case to invite damage to your phone. Moran.

What a tool.
