Over the past few days there have been a lot of murmurings regarding Tim Cook’s 2nd visit to China in the past 10 months. The initial report claimed that his purpose there wasn’t clear, but he was spotted visiting an authorized Apple reseller along with SVP of Marketing, Phil Schiller.

I don’t know what we would do if Apple quit getting into legal disputes. They have become as infamous for legal proceedings as they have for their devices.
