Just for laughs: have there been any indications that Apple might be inclined to include a user-replaceable (although I suppose "swappable" is the word I really want) battery in future iterations of the iPhone?
Perhaps I'm the only one who feels this way, but the fact that owning an iPhone means that I'm tethered to a charger of some kind (vs. simply swapping out batteries) has been, and remains, a deal-killer for me.
I don't know how this is going to sound, but my iPod spends far more time on the charger than it does in my bag due to its built-in battery* and that's not a quality I'm eager to see duplicated in any phone I would own.
Best,
James Fraser
*Yes, I have one of those devices that allows you to use AA batteries, but the form factor it creates upon installation is perfectly awful.
