Correct Jonathan, Apple users are Lucky SteveJobs isn't in control
because if he intended to make the iPhone thinner, the HeadPhone Jack
would be gone.
Does anyone recall him (SteveJobs) saying people can have WhatEver
color they like, so long as its Black.

Hi Scott, when it comes to Apple rumours, it's important to look at
their source, and whether they have a track record of accuracy.
We're seeing credible sources suggesting that Apple may be holding
an event in March to launch the Apple Watch 2. Since the iPhone 6C
if it eventuates would be using the same chips that are already
being produced for iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, it's not beyond the realms
of possibility that it will be launched then. If there is to be an
iPhone 6c, Apple won't want it overshadowing the iPhone 7
announcements. Those phones will of course be the current screen sizes.
As for the headphone jack issue and your comment that people are
being bent out of shape about it, again it's important to consider
how credible the source is. We know that Apple has been thinking
about the issue because they patented their own proprietary
headphone jack, and then they introduced specs for made for iPhone
headphones that use the Lightning port. As you say, there is a pair
of headphones with a Lightning connector in the Apple Store now. for
800 bucks. And the rumour has been deemed credible enough to have
been commented on extensively by many respected technology news
sites, including Cult of Mac, 9 to 5 Mac, Apple Insider, Beta News,
CNet, and Mashable. Even CBS has picked it up.
But there is one site remaining curiously and ominously silent. What
I find deeply disappointing is that AppleVis has not said a thing
about a topic which could have an enormous impact on the way blind
people use their iPhones. It's not just hearing impaired people who
will take a hit, but anyone who wants to use their iPhone with
minimal latency and energy consumption, who appreciate being able to
charge their phones while they also enjoy the privacy that the
headphone jack affords. There is an important and unique use case
here that Apple need to be made aware of before it's too late, and
for AppleVis to remain silent when many other Apple blogs are
speaking out is a gross dereliction of duty in my opinion. Why isn't
this an AppleVis campaign of the month? Staying silent on such an
important issue, when AppleVis could at least be encouraging users
to complete the feedback form, is ostrich-like in the extreme. I
think it's time users held AppleVis to account for its silence on this.

February? I doubt that. When was the last time an iPhone wasn't

I think, like with the headphone rumor, getting all bent out of shape
is just not really going to help much. However, there could be more
reason for the headphone rumor to becoming closer to a reality since
Apple is now selling headphones with lightning connectors. SO while I
doubt it'll happen next year, it's certainly not out of the rehlm of
possibilities. I don't like the idea for a lot of reasons, one of them
being that, just like the 1 port Mac, which is stupid imho, this will
force me to carry around more crap if I need to use more than one port
at a time. It also means more stuff to charge, shorter battery life on
my phone, and the delay from VoiceOver. Maybe they'll just introduce
the lack of a headphone plug on the 6C, assuming that rumor is going
to come to pass, and see how it plays out. However, I'd say that the
5C was not a success, so they may not bother.

Actually I would love a smaller phone and if that particular rumor is true I
will be thinking very much about upgrading to the 7. I like a phone which

Well, in your original post you said "Not just the size, but it does
contribute. Price, and quality also contributes", and I'm not sure what
you meant by this. At first I thought you meant that a smaller iPhone
would be cheaper and of less quality, but now I'm thinking you mean that
size, quality and price figure into your decision in buying a new phone.
In your last post you said "not sure which part, you have taken" which
also confuses me a bit, but I'm guessing you're saying you're not sure
which part of your message I didn't understand.
Either way, I think we're all good now.

First, I think the bending issue was much to do about nothing. I'm not
sure I understand the rest of your message, but a smaller iPhone won't
mean a low budget iPhone. If Apple does come out with a smaller
iPhone,
it'll still be a high quality top of the line smart phone.

I have heard of them comming back out with a small iphone the
size of the 5s , as I have heard that this size has been
requested since the larger 6s came out. I heard this on a tech
report on Fox and CNN
, so what do all of you think about this , would you get a
smaller phone , and thoes of you that are hanging on to the 5s,
4s and some of the 3gs

Well, I have said before and will say again that I think it is a
stupid idea to trade off one millimeter of thickness for the
headphone jack. I do not want an adapter. I do not want to pay for
it, nor do I want to lose it, which is almost inevitable. And then I
would have to buy another one. I'm sure it won't be a two dollar
item. And there's just no reason for it. 1 mm? Come on. If it were
for some seriously good reason, OK. But 1 mm? This is just crazy.

Subject: iPhone seven rumors
Sent from my iPhone hello, as you all may know you might have heard
of some rumors claiming that the next iPhone will not have a
headphone jack.. So, this might not be a good thing for Apple to do
this. But, reports are also saying that they might use the
lightning connector that you use to charge the iPhone to use it as
a headphone jack. But, that means that in order for somebody's
headphones to fit into that Jack, they will need to support a
lightning connector for the headphones. I don't know what the
companies will think about this change if it happens. Remember, if
this rumor is true, please email Apple and tell them not to do
this. Also, people might think that if there wasn't a headphone
jack, we might still be able to use Bluetooth. But, this might not
be what somebody else lights. Having a headphone jack is better.
What will also happen to any Bluetooth speakers that people own?
These speakers might have a headphone jack connected to them and
might require that you plug
i
t into the headphone jack in order to use. I hope that Apple does not
make this move because it might not do any good for them. The iPhone
sales might go down. We would not want that to happen just because
Apple made this change. Please remember, the iPhone 7 is still in the
making and these are just rumors. As long as we tell Apple what we
want, who knows, they might listen to us. But, we can't just keep
quiet. We need to try.
Thank you.
