RE: Manufacturing in separate parts of the world.
What you're proposing is already happening.
Motorola Mobility Holdings, Samsung Electronics, and Foxconn are building factories in Brazil to produce tablets there. Foxconn is the biggest of the bunch with some folks estimating the deal at $12 billion.

The Foxconn factory near "Steve Jobs" road is rumored by Brazilian media to already be producing iPhones and is expected to start churning out iPad tablets by December for sale to Brazil's growing middle class. The company, whose main listed vehicle is Hon Hai Precision Industry Co Ltd, has already hired more than 1,000 people in Jundiai, a medium-sized city an hour away from Sao Paulo, to work at a new plant.
