It sounds like you're saying they should remove the audio jack 5 years from now instead of today.
But that would be the opposite of praising Phil like you did, so I'm not sure what to think now.

I'm not shocked. Captive (fake) buttons can't hold a candle to a physical (real) button.
I'm convinced Ive has all but retired and is just sticking around to entertain himself by trolling people with these ridiculous designs.
As silly as the entire announcement was, I kind of like the idea of wireless earbuds. But I do wonder what their replacement will be and how well they remain in the ear area. Not every ear is the same.
This is an incredibly specific remark. Apple insider joke?

People threw a massive fit when Apple replaced the decade’s old 30 pin connector with lightening. They partially comforted people by saying that is going to now be the port for a long time to come thus screwing themselves out of changing that port out anytime soon.
I want to see what the jet black is like for finger prints
Not sure how on earth you've come to that conclusion. We certainly won't. Much more likely you'll see the new MB's ship with the wireless chip instead.
The new MBP's as we've seen are going to be all USB-C everything, a port that can replace everything (but no I don't honestly think it should be on the iPhone as lightning works fine as a standard there)
I wonder if the 6S/6S+ will remain treasured and sought-after for years -- at least for those who value physical home button and headphone jack -- as the "last iPhone" to have those things.
Or, if not exactly "treasured" -- if they at least won't drop in price (on the used market) to the same degree that previous-gen iPhones usually do.

To be fair, that didn't cripple it's functionality. At the moment, there doesn't appear to be an adapter that will allow you to both charge and use your headphones at the same time. Not sure about other users but I do this all the time.
Shhhhhh. Can't say. Although I can state the matte black will show more fingerprints than the jet black (piano black as we call it).
Have you used the force touch trackpad? It's indistinguishable from the older trackpads; except for the fact that you can click equally well anywhere on its surface. I'm sure the new home button is going to be just as good.
You know what they're like. I'm sure it'll feel fine. You'll soon get used to it.
Home button is solid state. I don't care if it doesn't feel as nice. It'll be far more durable, and it makes touch id more intuitive.
As a photographer/videographer, I was thrilled to see the lens now opens to F/1.8. If anyone knows photography, that's really fantastic territory for low-light shooting (and with an artistic, shallow depth of field).
I have no idea why some folks felt that this adapter would cost $69.
The MacBook has 3.5mm doesn't it?
Have you tried the new trackpads? They are completely convincing.
Not in my experience. I call it backward compatibility.
