Apple、iPhone 5でDockコネクタを刷新?

iOS端末やiPodファミリーで採用されてきた30ピンDockコネクタだが、iMoreの情報筋によると、次期「iPhone 5」でコンパクトなコネクタに刷新する可能性があるという。

次世代iOSデバイスでは、様々なコンポーネントが消費電力を必要とし、一部はサイズが大きくなり、また、機能追加のためのスペースが求められるなか、現在のDockコネクタはサイズが大きいと指摘。

さらに、iCloudやiOS 5の登場で、iOSデバイスをコンピュータにつなぐ必要性が無くなったほか、Wi-FiシンクやAirPlay、Bluetooth 4.0などの機能が追加されており、次世代iOSデバイスではデータ同期機能を取り除いて、つまり、充電のみを行うコネクタでも不都合はあまり生じないのかもしれない。
