The current title, Apple will no longer license aftermarket power adapters for iPhone 5, is not supported by the article. The word "power" doesn't even appear in the article. The article does say: Apple is said to have stopped approving third-party proposals for connector-equipped accessories in recent months. That is the existing 30 pin connector. An unnamed person claims they are stopping developers from designing new gear for the legacy connector. The new 9 pin connector is a secret. That means Apple won't share the specifications until after launch. They are plugging the gap in the interim with a $10 adapter for your boom-box-with-a-dock or whatever, and extra USB cables which let you use anyone on the planet's charger, computer, or automobile are $19, which is about as cheap as Apple can be bothered to sell a cable. Like your existing cables better? Great, stick an adapter on the end. (I'll need the three pack to cover my existing cables but retain iPad charging capability. $30. Sucks until I replace the iPad2.) The physical fit between dock, adapter, and iPhone will be highly variable, but it was going to be a bit different anyway from the phone's form factor change. In short: Set down the pitchforks someplace handy and get back to work. See what the third party folk say on September 19th then tweet back to the mob.
