> Apple's goal may be to remove all ports entirely. > Apple may be working towards an iPhone that is devoid of all buttons and ports, and is completely wireless. Seems like an attempt at a foolish purity to me, and user-hostile to boot. Eliminating all ports means charging your phone in a pinch or one the go will be harder. Say goodbye to emergency USB battery backs; and say hello to awkwardly balancing your nearly-dead phone on a charging pad an airport hallway, starting at it while it charges. If Apple goes through with this, I predict we'll see iPhone cases that incorporate a USB-C port and an integrated wireless charging pad. They'll be ugly, awkward, but very popular.
