There's an incredible innovation that can shrink a 3.5mm audio socket by over 30% in thickness. It's called a 2.5mm socket.

One of my old phones (the Treo 650 I think) had one of those sockets, and using an adapter to plug in 3.5mm earphones was pretty irritating.

More or less irritating than a Lightning-3.5mm adapter?
