The tech news is literally whipping itself into a foamy frothy santorum<\/a> today over the RUMOR that the iPhone 7 will do away with the 3.5mm headphone jack.<\/p>\n

OMG! This is worse that a nuclear attack! According to some of the moronic pundits.<\/p>\n

Really?<\/p>\n

So you\u2019re going to have to buy an adapter or pay for headphones that have an adapter or special connector? That\u2019s got your panties in a twist? Big Deal!<\/p>\n

A few thoughts:<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a rumor, that means it may or may not be true.<\/p>\n

When was the last time you really used that 3.5mm port? Is it going to be that big a loss?<\/p>\n

<\/a>With Bluetooth headsets becoming more common, packing all day battery life, and audio quality that rivals all but the highest end headsets, is this really gonna bring your world to a crashing end?<\/p>\n

Given that the current iPhone 6s boasts a water resistance that borders on waterproof doesn\u2019t it make sense that apple is going to minimize the number of openings in the phone?<\/p>\n

After all you don\u2019t have to seal what you never opened in the first place.<\/p>\n

Personally I\u2019d take waterproof and a bigger battery over a 3.5mm headphone jack I rarely use. I\u2019m more concerned about the rumored thinning of the iPhone itself. I happen to have an iPhone 5s. I like the size, I like the shape, and the edges. I like it\u2019s gripability.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not overly enamoured of the iPhone 6 shape and rounded edges, I think it\u2019s harder to hold onto, and knowing me, I\u2019m for more likely to have the thing go crashing to the floor, no doubt after a really humorous juggling act.<\/p>\n

Making the phone thinner is probably not<\/strong> going to help me out.<\/p>\n

That being said, I\u2019ll patiently wait for the iPhone 7 \u201creveal\u201d in 2016 because until you actually see the product, there\u2019s no need to freak out about it.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know who Dan Savage is having sex with\u2026 But if santorum is common in his life, he needs to find another partner or learn better hygiene.<\/p>\n

Yeah you\u2019re never going to wash these images out of your brain.<\/p>\n
