  • Apple's wireless AirPods hit delays, won't meet October launch window

    I'll say it again ... totally botched the removal of the headphone jack. Essential transition technology should have been ready day one, not a month and half later, and now with no ETA at all ... really inexcusable, especially considering how much time they've known this was going to happen. Probably won't affect sales of the iPhone 7 substantially, but really poor form considering all the other compromises customers who made use of the headphone jack have made since upgrading to the iPhone 7.

  • Apple officially ditches headphone jack for Lightning, will include adapter in iPhone 7 box

    Definitely surprised these will be in the box. And they're not really as slim as I'd hoped. I expect third parties to really improve these. No mention how these can be used for charging and listening. Hope Apple adds a simple pass-through to the charging cable in the box. Wonder when that will be confirmed?

    Boy Phil sure looked like he was uncomfortable making that announcement. Definitely took some balls to face the headphone jack removal head on as they did, rather than just focus on what they're adding and where they're going.

  • Belkin announces simultaneous Lightning headphone and charging adapter for iPhone 7

    This is a complete fail. Apple needs to offer something as simple as a pass through connector on the Lightning cable included in the box.

    In either event, I wouldn't buy this until we see an unboxing to know what Apple has included.

    Can two Lightning headphones plug into this and use it to share audio? What happens if someone tries that?

  • Actually, there is something new about Apple's upcoming iPhone 7

    So many words and still iphone 7 will be to iPhone 6s what iPhone 6s was to iPhone 6. Everything's improved but nothing will be really new and desirable. And we all knew how iPhone 6s turned out. I have been using iPhone 6 Plus for two years and I should be upgrading but I'm not. I bet there will be many iPhone 6 users like me. 
    Exactly what I was thinking ... So much effort to justify nothing.
