They may save money but the big thing they want is more realestate to put components in the phone and or the ability to make it thinner. I doubt the human ear gains much by having the signal handed to the headphones digitally or over an analog path. That few feet of cable isn’t going to make that much difference. I don’t think it’s a pure money grab though, I could be wrong but I don’t get that feeling. > On Jan 20, 2016, at 6:06 AM, Bill Gallik <wfgal...@icloud.com> wrote: > > I have to wonder if Apple is really planning on changing the headphone jack. > I also wonder if the eventual iPhone 7 will come complete with the necessary > audio jack adapter included? > > But the bottom line to me is this, if Apple does incorporate an alternative > connection to the current jack do people truly believe it is only to pry > additional dollars from the pockets of a remarkably loyal customer base?
