I&#x27;m with you on the price setting and App Store stuff, but it was my impression that they had gotten much better about the NDA issue over the last couple of years.<p>I would love to see the 3.5mm jack disappear though. I have mixed feelings about consolidating on Lightning though considering that it&#x27;d mean the end of auxiliary in car trips for those of us not BT enabled. Regardless of how you feel about the quest for thinness, the headphone jack is unreasonably wide, and something thinner would make it easier to get other components in there, as well as opening it up for other control methods beyond the simple clicker found on many headphones without the need for any hackery to do it.<p>I think it&#x27;d be inevitable that they would then license it rather than making it an open hardware spec, which would be a crying shame though.
