No... I don't want to purchase your overpriced, overhyped, shitty accessories to use your product when I can just as easily buy some other product that uses standards and buy w/e the **** I want to go with it. |

I can't imagine they'd STOP making headphones with a normal jack - that'd be a completely devastating move for the Beats brand.

I probably won't buy another apple product if they change the stinking headphone equipment. That's stupid.
But I will say this, their power cable is far far better than the micro USB. |

Apple's ONE advantage in cabling is that they are reversible. Of course that doesn't make up for the fact that they are proprietary bullshit.
Luckily, that advantage goes away in one month when the USB forum should release the new Type-C connector. Of course, it will take some time to get to market(probably 6 months before we see them). The REALLY cool part is that the new USB rivals HDMI 1.4 in throughput and also carries up to 20V. |

Alright - got a question for any of you guys that might know the answer. Long story short - my brother is moving from Apple to Android. He wants to move all his contacts from his iPhone 4 to his Gmail account. I'm having no luck.
Any ideas on the easiest method to do this? |
