As Keith noticed yesterday I was using a different phone, which is a new work phone. This one is clearly more of a product of globalisation. Production of the phone has shifted to Hungary. The battery on the other hand has come from China. The one that really turned my head though, and I'm not sure why, is the headphone set which was assembled in Vietnam! I don't know why, but it's just not a place I'd associate with hi-tech assembly. But why not? Everywhere else has moved on.
