Rumor: Apple to abandon headphone jack

Makes the Beats acquisition understandable. Now you''ll have to buy a new pair of headphones/earbuds with the Lightning jack. Some benefits, many drawbacks.
Buh-bye headphone jack

Guess they're not into getting new converts, and are instead focusing on squeezing their loyal fans as much as possible.
It'll probably work well.

This is....weird. So you can't use headphones while you charge? I'm sure there's a way around this....

Man, they had me committed after WWDC, now this shite? I might be getting the new moto x instead.
Of course, nothing's official yet but it sounds legit.

Apple will slow play this transition over a certain amount of time.
During this transition, the headphone jack will work as well as the new Lightening functionality. Users will have both options and the headphone jack will be phased out slowly.
It's no big deal.
It's just like the Lightening cord for charging. People belly ached and whined and in the end the Lightening cord is far superior to the 30 pin.

A lot of overreaction ITT.
Small observation. Scroll past the first article, second article, third article. Apparently this guy writes for the sole purpose to try and shite on apple products. You can sense it in every sentence. Pardon me if I don't get my jimmies rustled by some shite that apple hasn't even released.

What the frick?
I use my Apple earbuds in my car ALL THE TIME to make calls while it's charging.
So no more charging while using headphones?!?!?!?

Well, the japowakees will eventually have 3.5mm to lightning adapters on ebay to save the little fanbois.

If true, I'm sure there will be an adapter.
Saw a 45 yr old white guy wearing Beats headphones and couldn't believe how ridiculous he looked!
There are hundreds of headphone companies they could buy for 3billion less. Instead they opt for the silly fad brand. Two years from now, Beats will be at TJ Maxx. Guarantee it.

I didn't read the entire thread but isn't it possible that they will still have a headphone jack but those who want to use the lightning jack can?
