Is this 3 years ago? Apple sells not just from its name but it mostly sells today in the states as a symbol of wealth, sure an android phone might offer far more storage and flexibility at a lower cost, but if your friends all see it they'll know that you didn't have the $600 to afford the new iPhone, this logic gets a lot of people to buy them even if they can't afford the newest iPhones but they don't want to appear that they can't afford it, it's a pretty vicious circle to appear better off.
The rumour about the 3.5mm jack has to be just that I think, it hasn't been since the N-Gage that a phone has needed an adapter to use a normal set of headphones and it isn't just headphones, with a standard 3.5mm jack it's simple to connect an iPhone/iPod to your home sound system and enjoy your music, so if they turn the product away from being in the least bit useable surely... their customers would complain and vote with their wallets.... although that hasn't happened in the past decade.
