  Thought that the floppy was some kind of case? That would be insane… but possible… OMG.

  Also, if customs destroys goods, because they are illegal, or whatever, they don’t usually send the pieces, do they? Without a notice too?!

  The article says that you can send it in to be recycled. Idk, but if you get a voucher for sending it in to use for buying the next one (or another product) people might actually do it and it is not as bad as throwing it away. A rechargable battery would also degrade over time and since it can only be a tiny one… Also there is a chance people might use it to tinker.

  However, I agree that this design choice (resulting in the low price) is very questionable to say the least.
