Ipod touch June 2.0 Update, Apple are charging us for it again!!!?
After waiting for a month or so for the iphone/itouch sdk, it was finally released earlier this week. I was slightly shocked to find however that the app store through which the apps will be bought isn’t going to become available until June in the 2.0 update. Although it means a 3 month wait, at least this should guarantee rich apps that haven’t being rushed through development.
Unknown to myself until a few days ago, I found out that the 2.0 update is free for the iphone but once again apple are charging an undisclosed premium for itouch users.
Why should we have to pay for something again that iphone customers get for free? After spending the money to buy the device in the first place, why should we have to pay for the software that allows us to spend more money on purchasing new apps?
What do you think? Is there going to be an end to apple’s premium updates? Will we ever get these updates for free?
I AM TOTALLY AGAINST IT TOO!!!!
But I think that they know what they are doing… Because the iPhone users have to pay a monthly fee with AT&T. We iPod touch users don’t pay a single fee (besides the updates) everything is free (except maybe music (if u don’t steal it) that u get from iTunes). The only other thing that we pay for (possibly) is Internet (for wi-fi).
But I am totally against paying for it, but I didnt buy the last update – cuz I didnt have the money – and I was going to buy it this weekend, but now that this update is coming out, I am probaly gong to wait cuz the June update might come with the precious ones, (if it don’t I’ll have to buy it) I hope it does!
I hope you agree with me!
