Latest rumor pegs secure iris scanner for Apple's 2017 iPhone
I really don't think so. Apple has put a lot into Touch ID ($400 million to acquire that Israeli company + 2 years of R&D), and nothing more than Touch ID is truly needed on iOS devices. That's the real gaping hole in this rumor. It's just not needed.

Most of the major Linux distros who use it for downloading OS updates. All the mirrors, even those at universities offer BT versions of Linux.ericthehalfbee said:Besides thieves who download music/movies, who else uses BT?
All those who defend the torrent, usually cite these kinds of uses (though you didn't mention that the torrent is a option for any distro that I have ever seen (with mirrors being by far the preferred method) But... what you fail to disclose is that the overwhelming bulk of torrent traffic IS wares, video (copyrighted) and music (copyrighted) You can pretend that it has legitimate uses (and perhaps it COULD) but for now it is (almost completely) a channel for pirated goods.

All Legal. All Bittorent. It is truly amazing what people think they know.

The twist is that it is a Lighting-to-3.5mm adapter in the box...so you can use your new Lightning Earpods with everything else. HA! Now that would be Apple.![[Deleted User]](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar.php?gravatar_id=fe92f6a37ebd6ceda124ba99418f67b1&size=50&default=https%3A%2F%2Fvanillicon.com%2Ffe92f6a37ebd6ceda124ba99418f67b1.png)

But but...you're forgetting all about what an acknowledgement of guilt it is, instead of a generous offer that solves a problem /sthewhitefalcon said:
Including the adapter would pretty much extinguish the complaints.blastdoor said:This sure does have the stink of plausibility on it.
It sure does seem that Apple is creating a significant marketing challenge for themselves.
To everyone else, if you look at the adapter you can see the end with the Lightning jack is just a rubber shroud surrounding a normal connector. It's just a mockup.
