> Side note, I think it is hilarious that Apple can't get the AirPods to ship at the same time as the iPhone. Anyone who buys the new phone on release is going to be stuck with the crappy lightning headphones for at least a month and a half.

Why? The phone comes with an adapter. Any headphones that worked with previous iPhones will work with the iPhone 7 via the adapter. People will just continue to use the headphones they already have.

Because ditching the 3.5 mm jack is a fairly big deal and you'd think they would show you how well it works to encourage people to buy in to their idea and included them as standard.
