Apple Finally Shows MicroUSB Some iPhone Love (But Just Barely)
Uh oh your phone's dying? No big deal, as long as it was made in the past year or two. Just grab a microUSB cable!Unless it's an iPhone. Then you're stuck hunting around for the ol' white 30-pin which, while ubiquitous in its own right, isn't nearly as multi-talented.Back in 2009, Apple committed to the European Union that they'd support microUSB but to what extent? Would they ditch the dock connector altogether? Of course not. Would they add a microUSB port to the device as a handy alternative? Probably not. Would they release a Dock-Connector-to-microUSB adapter and call it a day? We thought so and sure enough, that's what they've just done.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/hJM6iVTMPBc/
