When it was announced that the iPhone 7 wasn't going to have a headphone jack, I honestly didn't think it was that big of a deal. Incorrect. It has turned out to be a significant pain in the butt using some of my "old" accessories. The sleep headphones I use nightly now require a dongle to be plugged in, and I use a second $40 dongle to charge while listening. It's an absurd setup, for sure, but the cool part of this new wholly wireless future Apple is trying to get us on is there have been some really neat (and really expensive) headphones released. I've got a pair of Beats Solo 3's which look and sound just like my old Beats, but have a battery in them that last so long I find myself charging them every week or two more because I feel like I should rather than because I need to. The magic of the Solo 3's is Apple's new W1 chip, which also is the star of the show in the Apple AirPods which just arrived via FedEx at my house about an hour ago. It seems like the meme masters of the internet have been making fun of the AirPods since they were first announced in September along side the iPhone 7. The laundry list of things that were worth mocking included how silly they look, how you'll lose them, how expensive the are, and other typical complaints new Apple things typically find themselves the target of. Sure, I'll concede they look silly, but so do most Bluetooth headphones and earbuds. The $160 price point definitely puts them in the upper echelon of wireless ear...
