    Can't make Belkin any worse than it currently is: bargain basement parts at premium pricing (based on brand nostalgia). At least Foxconn manufacture decent kit.

    It's the way they make that is the problem...

    At this rate, the whole industry is going to be run by 2-3 mega-corporations - just like the rest of the world, then!
