Hmmm... What do people with the new iPhones that utilize a Lightning port rather than a 3.5 mm jack do?

Wow! Lightning to 3.5 mm Headphone Jack Adapter, and only $9...but cheaper than the alternatives. frown

Pretty amazing concept, not to mention nice revenue stream...getting people to pay for equipment upgrades that necessitate their paying for downgrade adapters! (Yeah, I know.)

It just takes the addition of an Lightning to 35mm headphone jack adaptor that is available from the Apple Store for $9.


If we knew what it was we were doing, it wouldn't be called research, would it?

Looks like the same one I linked to, but either you typo-ed it from 3.5mm to 35mm or iPhones have gotten a heck of a lot bigger. grin

Actually I was practicing dictation and I miss the fact that Siri missed the period.

I should have guessed that Siri was involved. (This time you missed the fact that Siri missed "missed". Methinks that either Siri's got a long way to go or an awful lot of people are going to have to re-learn diction.)

More: Someday, Mac users, all computer users, perhaps, will be immediately distinguishable because they'll sound like telephone operators, but will there be anybody left who even remembers telephone operators when that someday rolls around?

Pretty ironic that gizmos that dissuade people from talking to each other are going to force them to re-learn how so speak so they can talk to them. crazy
