Topic #12-Finally the new iPhone

Here is the link to the article that I picked to show a form of globalization.

This article takes about the new release of the iPhone in eight countries, and will be available to 80 countries in the upcoming weeks. I think it is interesting that the first eight countries would include the US and European countries were internet use and technology is already high. This article also demonstrates the common reaction in the people from different stores. This shows the relentless movement of cultural trends and money as people from all these different stores buy the same item. The transnational company of apple has diminished the borders of countries to bring the same item, the iphone, to all people. Apple makes use of this must have item to keep selling to the customer after they have bought the iphone through the itunes and app online store. Overall this release of the iphone will increase apples transnational sells; something that causes people to wonder about their individual cultural practices.
