In what way is this progress? Please, explain to me how REMOVING a feature and packing in an overpriced, middling quality set of earbuds that are arbitrarily locked to your iPhone (s) counts as progress? My past four phones have had the ability to use wireless headphones if I wanted - incuding wireless earbuds - and also use wired ones too. And my current phone is also water resistant. So explain how "can use wireless headphones and is water resistant" is further advanced or in any way better than "can use wireless headphones, wired headphones, and is water resistance".
This isn't progress. This is an act of naked greed, to push more easily lost or broken proprietary crap on customers that they'll have to come to them to replace. And it's also about their desperate need to *look* progressive when they stopped being bleeding edge LONG ago.
