3. Apple removed the ubiquitous *headphone jack* (it was "courageous")

Of the 296 high-end phones released in the last 3 years, only 77 have headphone jacks:

YMMV, but when 91% of current industry products don't offer what Arlen claims are "industry standard"
features, its pretty easy to figure out that Arlen is wrong.

One only needs to see Arlen pontificating - yet again - about iPhones, to realize that he is wrong.

Like every troll on usenet, he clearly knows nothing about the topic that
he is clearly totally obsessed with.

He really puts the Kook in iKook.
