    You mean in the same universe where Apple bundles a Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter with Macbook Pro Retinas?

    Ethernet ? headphones…

     

    1. in the hierarchy of importance of use

    So this hypothetical headphone adapter - which Apple would uncharacteristically now bundle - would be exactly equivalent to the one they included  with the iPhone 4 then.    I imagine you must fertilise your garden with unicorn droppings.

    There you go again. Apple has shipped such things plenty of times.

    You’ll have to refresh my memory in this regard. To what adapter are you referring?

    The 1/8th hole in my ipod touch in comparison to the overall design looks weirdly anachronistic.
