SAN FRANCISCO During a two-hour product showcase held on Wednesday in one of rock musics most storied venues, Apple executives signaled that the company was heading toward a wireless future, where devices would connect without cables.A big step in that direction is the removal of a headphone jack from the latest version of the iPhone, called the iPhone 7.What was lacking in Apples presentation, as has been the case for the Silicon Valley giant in recent years, was a new, cant-miss hit like the original iPod.

The iPhone 7 includes a better camera and the bigger iPhone 7 Plus has a second high-end camera with a telephoto lens. It also has an improved home button that lets users perform different tasks by varying how hard they press it.
