On a recent post, there were a lot of comments, which said that they were missing the headphones on newer mobile devices.

How many actually use the headphone jack?

I ask, because I have one on my phone, since I really wanted one, but I rarely use it. Like Tops 1/Month.

I'm about 20 years older than you, and the only wired earphones I have came with devices. They're in a box with other crap I don't use.

I haven't used wired earphones since about 2006.

So yea, I don't think "older folks have more wired stuff" holds true at all. All my peers embraced BT and were happy to ditch wires.
