  • The best Bluetooth earbud alternatives to Apple AirPods

    I've had my Bose Soundsport Wireless for about 4 months now and love them.

  • Apple CEO Tim Cook to appear on 'Good Morning America,' says AirPods stay put during exercise

    Some people...such as myself...simply have ears that are not shaped in a way that prevents earbuds from falling out.

    I have never found a pair of earbuds that would remain secure in my ears without some sort of rubber "wing" that holds it in place. Regular earbuds of any brand simply fall out because I don't have a little lip on the bottom of my ear (it's flat), therefore there is nothing to secure it in place.

    It's no big deal as I just find a pair that is compatible with my ear shape such as the Bose ear buds.

  • Bluetooth streaming problems introduced in Apple's iOS 9.2 remain, have wide ramifications

    Yes because Lightning headphones are so plentiful on the market. Oh wait...they're not.  Apple doesn't even make them.
    Your comment proves that even Apple fans lack imagination. This is similar non-sense I heard about the disc drive removal.
    Please post the link to the Apple first-party Lightning headphones so I can purchase a set. Thanks!

    Headphone jack removal apologists, take note. Wireless not always as great as it sounds. 
    Pretty sure you can still used wired headphones even without the headphone jack. So missing your point? It's called lightning connected (not wireless) headphones

  • New photos of alleged Lightning EarPods for Apple's 'iPhone 7' match recent leak

    Does anyone know if Apple or anyone else makes a Lightning-to-Parallel Port adapter? I have an old OKIdata dot-matrix printer that I'd really like to use with my iPad. It's sad that Apple has ignored parallel port-using customers in its desire to move forward and advance the state of the art.

    This is where I insert the Henry Ford "a faster horse" quote. 

    I love how the people who will have no problem dropping $700 on a brand-new iPhone are already groaning about not being able to use the headphones that shipped with their 1983 Walkman. Cry me a river. 
    My 2015 $300 Bose noise cancelling headset didn't ship with my 1983 Walkman, but you expect me to just throw that away so I can have an iPhone that is 1mm thinner.  That makes sense only in the mind of an Apple fanboy.  There's a reason why that jack has been around for so long...because it works and it works well.

    This is where I insert the quote "if it isn't broke, don't fix it".
