They're also removing it from iPads, which is a nightmare for anyone with small children.

This is definitely inferior to a headphone jack but it works:

Ahh nice, a planned obsolescence piece of junk that prohibits any other connection to the device while using it.

The question is: can your four year old use it, not lose it, and not break it every other minute. Because they break _headphones_ fairly often.

I briefly tried to use that. The Lightning port is centered in the case, so it's impossible to use the device in landscape without your hand knocking the connector loose. No, it doesn't work.
