Foxconn Thinks the iPhone 5 Is a Pain

[wraggster]

China's largest electronics manufacturer, the already-loathed Foxconn, is now taking the fall for the iPhone 5 shortage that's annoyed consumers and worried investors in recent weeks. What's the holdup? They don't have enough parts? They're training new line workers? They're too busy trying to regain control of their factories after employees started rioting? Nah. According to the company, the iPhone 5 is just a huge pain to put together (http://motherboard.vice.com/2012/10/17/foxconn-thinks-the-iphone-5-is-a-pain-in-the-ass--2). That bit about the riots (http://apple.slashdot.org/story/12/09/24/0147200/riot-breaks-out-at-foxconn) is a little bit true, too, though.
