Magnetic Attachment to Laptops
Ok, I just bought my first MacBook and really like the idea of the magnetic power attachment.
Hey Apple! Make that happen with the headphones too! I like to listen to music, or even watch a little DL.TV at work, but I may need to run quickly and don't wanna pull my ears out, or worse yet, pull my laptop off my desk.

Quick, file a patent, then call Apple.

I've done this so many times it's ridiculous. I actually bent the plug on my headphones. I don't know how the laptop stayed on my desk. Magnetic attachment is a great idea, but I really don't think it's that feasible. The 3.5mm jack is just too ubiquitous. I don't think companies like Sennheiser will switch to a new jack just because Apple made it. Maybe if they offered it as an option...
I think it would be better if Apple supported the Bluetooth A2-something stereo audio protocol, then you'd just use Bluetooth headphones. That would be a lot more flexible and there's no worry about accidentally disconnecting anything.
A2DP support is indeed overdue, and fortunately coming in Leopard.
