Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I'm of the belief that you shouldn't refer to yourself as courageous. Especially if you're a company. Courage is something others must judge, and I was amused during the keynote Apple used the moment to give themselves a pat on the back. Ick.
That said, I'm glad they're doing it. They're putting an adapter in the box and they're selling it for $9, which is more than fair in the Apple universe. And the truth is, Apple is the most b(only?) influential player that can push the industry towards wireless. Nobody else can really move the market, and if Apple doesn't do it, we'll continue to be stuck using this very old connector.
