Apple's New iOS Device Marketing: 'Lightning' Dock Connector, 'Earpod' Headphones, 'Loop' Accessory

Could the 'loop' accessory be some sort of lanyard to hold the iPod Touch around your neck?

Hmm, I wonder how can it be faster if the data is still sent over USB 2.0...

And why wouldn't it plug in the Thunderbolt on my Macbook.... You get in the box a lightning to thunderbolt cable.. including an adapter for thunderbolt to USB... Or a second cable lightning to USB...

I dont have any use for my TB ports right now... and I own 3 of them.. Pleas give me something I can put in the freaking port.. I dont care if its fast.. I want to use the port :)
 
The loop will be a lanyard that goes through that mysterious hole we were seeing in leaks.
 
I'm actually excited to see new headphones, I wonder how good they are compared to the current ones.

Ahhhh! I think you're right!
 
I don't think you people realize how nicely they're going to fit in your ear. It clearly is designed to nicely rest in your ear, while aiming the audio backwards which is actually a better position than the current orientation. The audio should sound much better.
 
$29? you gotta admit Apple sure knows how to steal money from their fanbase.

That's fairly cheap for a mid range set of headphones. I usually opt for the Sennheiser CX300-II which usually retail for the $40 mark (or £25 here in the UK)

Perhaps. :p

I'm not even in the market for a new iPod touch and this is awesome news. Brings me way back to the iPod mini/nano days.

I get the sentiment you r sending accross

the ipod nano with color screen was a marvel of modern tech in a tiny package. I was drooling all over it, and I even bought a second one a few weeks later, just in case...

It would be cool if they sell a Lighting to Thunderbolt cable. Although I can't remember the last time I actually sync'd my phone to my computer.

How do you get the portion of your music collection that's not from the iTunes music store onto your phone? As far as I know syncing is the only way...
