I was actually reasonably impressed with the iOS 8 improvements announced this week, but that's the kind of shit that keeps me away.
This is the reason why I dont buy apple products.

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.

Buy out the most popular headphones company in the country. Then make them to be, only compatible with Apple Products.

Yep, that sounds like a dick Apple move.

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?

Send the contacts through email from the phone.

I found that you can go into each individual contact and send it through email already - can you do that for all contacts? He's got 200-300 contacts.
