I have seen and read multiple articles about the Supposed next iPhone having a new connector. Supposably it is going to have fewer pins smaller size allows for more room for other things etc etc etc....
I am wondering what is the merit of Apple designing and integrating a unique connection port vs using something that is proven a very capable design like the mini or micro USB connection.
I know there are going to be people who say well then they can use any other usb device such as a charger or doc or whatever but I have a 3rd party doc with the original Apple connection that my iPhone 4 says is not compatible so why can't they do the same for an iPhone using the mini/micro USB cable?
Also I know we are just speculating but I would be interested to know what others think the new connector will be like. Are you envisioning a mini 30pin type connector or more of a blade usb type.
Curious to your thoughts
