The unlocked version usually turns up around Christmas.
Last year it was in October if I remember right.
Like the extra battery life and the other updates. Will be getting one. Sales for Apple will be just fine...JMHO...

They're not that good, I've got 2 1.0, would never sell 'em!Apple Airpods aka iPod Hi-Fi 2.0.
That's not huge. It's tiny actually, because you're talking about connecting your head to a wall for extended periods of time. How often do you think people will really want to do this?
You're buying an expensive mobile device (with the best battery life yet for an iPhone) but, oh no, you don't want to spend a few bucks on wireless headphones to avoid routinely connecting your head to a wall???
Also, if that's really what you want to do, you'll be able to buy a pass-through adapter that will allow you to charge and listen to wired headphones at the same time.
This has to be the worst argument for keeping the old headphone jack.
My point is that the amount you pay each month on an 'old plan' likely includes a 1/24 or 1/18 cost of the phone itself and if you switched to a new plan you'd see your monthly cost drop, but you would have to purchase a phone. At the end of the day most people are in the same net position because they're paying less each month for their service but they now incur a distinct monthly hardware cost.I think you are thinking of another plan. My plan will not be decreasing after the contract ends....this is the same with all of the older subsidized rates.
So not true when the 3GS was launched the price of the phone was not built into the contract and you did not get a discount after two years and you could turn around and sell your phone and essentially get a free upgrade after two years.
But I'm a bit annoyed at the fact that the 7 Plus gets a significantly improved camera over the 7 -- I much prefer the smaller form factor, but I also want the better camera.
It had to happen sometime. I'd say courage is accurate.
Do yourself a favor, please upgrade. Same goes to me.I guess it's time to upgrade from my 4S.....
How dense are you people? You can't hear a digital signal!That's not actually true. 3.5mm headphone jack is analogue, so it has to covert the digital recording into analogue which means quality loss in the sound. Lighting is fully digital. So it will be better quality.
What is the problem?
They are providing you an adapter free of charge. And they're moving into the fully digital world.
To me it sounds like a win-win.
Maybe he's an American?
In the USA, about half the population between 18 and 65 years old is unemployed and have no prospect for attaining full time employment in their lifetime.

Stick a lightning jack in your ear, and let me know what it sounds like.
Does anyone know if any thunderbolt headphones have a power passthrough port? If you're low on battery power, how will you power your phone & listen to wired headphones? While I can get BT headphones, but what if they need to be charged as well?
Did you just create a new forum account for the sole purpose of criticising the removal of the 3.5mm jack?Why did removing the analog jack need to be done?
Replacing it with a dongle is just plain bad design and removes the ability to listen via wired headphones and charge at the same time.
I understand why they'd do it in terms of profits - licensing fees to non-beats headphone makers, car stereo makers and home stereo makers, sales of dongles that will invariably get lost, and lots of sales for their new line of Beats Lightning headphones, but it's a really big step back in the user experience for a lot of people.
It's a good deal if you like paying over-the-odds for an iPhone and supporting Apple's planned obsolescence. After all, if they're offering a plan whereby they replace your phone each year, they need a phone that you want to 'upgrade' to.
Awesome - more for the rest of us.No headphone jack, no thanks.
Courage, please.
It's a 2006 mazda. And you're right, I just found a bluetooth kit that supposedly works with the stereo - $140 plus labor to install.What car do you have? I'm sure there will be dongles that allow a lightning connector and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
