I kind of wish I had bought a set while they existed. But I don't have a new machine for them to go with. I just figured the nice looking hardware would disappear soon.

Existing bands???

If I remember correctly, Jobs was adamant about having a switch because it was easy to use and you could always tell by a glance whether the sound was on or off. It seems that in recent years there has been a lack of hyper focus when it comes to design and use. While Cook has done a formidable job, Apple needs to bring back some of the vision and standards that were in place back in the day. Bring back Scott Forstall...

Those rounded edges might be aging, but they feel better on the hands and make the device look sleeker. It’s a case of form following function, so you sacrifice some desirable qualities for that “contemporary” look. I’m hoping the flat sides start to look old soon, so they phase them out before I need to replace my devices.

Just a question, since time makes me forget. Wasn’t Arm developed by Apple, and Steve Jobs sold the company in the times of necessity? Careful! I am not talking about the false narrative of Microsoft. Only about Arm
