Morgan, I think you're right about Apple computers, iphones, iPods being made in China (or similar) or made with parts manufactured in China (or similar) and assembled some place else, just like other computers.

if it makes you feel better, my first 2 iPods were defective, just like your 2 iPhones.
A bad batch probably. I can't blame Apple, though. Same thing happens in the PC world. One year, we had to change all the motherboards on the DELL workstations (bad capacitors on all of them, a known defect at DELL since they automatically extended warranties on the motherboards because of that problem). Another year, they recalled the power supply cords of the laptops.
