What the hell is going on at Cupertino?

I'm trying to connect it to my iPhone 5 and this is what I get

I've contacted Apple about why this isn't compatible with the iPhone 5.

All I got was one bs story after the other. Things like "the iPad screen is bigger therefor its not compatible"

Are you freaking kidding me!!!! WTF is wrong with them giving me that nonsense from tech support. Its absolutely crazy.

Now I know on the website it only says compatible with iPad but it doesn't explain why it wouldn't work on the iPhone 5. It should work and there seems no other reason why it would not work.

The only reason I can think of right now is that Apple deliberately cripples this accessory for the IPhone 5.

I demand an answer from Apple because this is just bs. :mad:

Right under the compatibility section it clearly lists iPad (4th generation), and iPad mini. Mystery solved. They shouldn't have to explain why it won't work with the iPhone. It's not like they're advertising that it does. I'm sure it's a resolution thing.

But he wants to know! He demands to know!

Man this world is full of self absorbed, self entitled beings. The end is near.
 
I was kinda expecting these kinds of reply's.

It really doesn't matter to you guys if Apple deliberately cripples stuff down does it?

We should all demand clear explanations why things don't work.
Becuase only a dumb down society swallows crap day after day. ;)
