No, i see a proprietary jack which will only work on one device

since it'll work with the iPhone, iPod, and iPad, that's ok though.

people are mad b/c now they cant hook their ipod up to their friends tape deck + get the new alien ant farm cd.

why would anyone do that? I don't think you're correct at all. I think what people are complaining about is apple adding dongles for no reason other than to scam people out of $20 every time they lose one.

i dont see a dongle

no one uses the headphones that come with it, they are garbage, and those are garbage if they are legit apple headphones

if I wanna charge and listen to things i need a dongle, and that is bad

3.5mm good, dongle bad.

look at all that poo poo

apple is bringing it back. First step: Dongles + headphones instead of just the headphones.

framing the people who don't like this as somehow wanting to go back to flipphones and mini jacks is a pretty desperate move, even by insane fanboy standards

it's like sony when they made that bluetooth remote control for the PS3. it is the absolute right decision, but because no one else is willing to let go of their lovely and inferior technology, this will inevitably fail.

Lightning is an international standard, much like Sony UMDs, and will gradually replace all other connectors.

the earpods are perfectly good for the only time you should be wearing earphones in public which is taking a work phone call. otherwise stop being antisocial

at home you should have a good stereo just plug your old headphones into that np
