Saturday Night Live Tech Talk Spoof on iPhone 5 Issues
Videos for Engineers

This is a hilarious spoof that Saturday Night Live came up with for addressing the well-known issues with the new iPhone 5. Christina Applegate plays the host to a panel of tech industry gurus and a "trap" panel of Chinese iPhone 5 factory workers. "Tech Talk" faux representatives from real-life entities CNET, Wired Magazine, and Gizmodo gripe about the funky maps, "purple haze" from the camera, and how easily scratched the case is (these are the top 3 complaints by users). After smarmily registering their complaints, the hostess then presents employees from the iPhone 5 factory (Foxconn is never mentioned by name) who proceed to sarcastically address each topic with responses demonstrating how petty the whining is compared to their life's woes in China under Communist rule. I won't give any more away; you'll have to watch it to get the full effect of its humor.

I am surprised no mention was made about the suicides that have occurred in the Apple production factories there. Evidently there are some places that even SNL will not go.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
