A quick check showed it is estimated that Apple gets about 18% of it's profits from China but only maybe 7% from EU countries (ignore Apple's definition of Europe!).

Maybe China is easier to work with - perhaps their rules are made clearer?

China has 1.4 billion people and they are rapidly increasing their wealth. The only surprising factor is that Chinese cell phone providers haven't eaten up their marketshare yet.
