They use a different date format in China http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_and_time_notation_in_the_R...

That doesn't necessarily mean it's just a coincidence, though. The phone number may very well have been chosen by an American. Apple is big on central management, after all.
Well, if it isn't a coincidence, someone's certainly going to get in trouble if we keep shouting about it. Also I could see this thread getting HN blocked over there too.
Saying that, if Steve Jobs was the devil it would explain a lot.
Looking at the bottome of the page I see that Apple have a toll free number 400-666-8800, I take it we're supposed to wonder if that 666 is a coincidence as well? Saying that, if Steve Jobs was the devil it would explain a lot.
