iPod Touch Upgrade
Written on January 15, 2008
I was surprised when Apple announced there would be a 20 dollar upgrade fee to get the new sweetness on my iPhone. I felt like this guy does.
But then I thought about it and started to wonder…
Perhaps this is a test to see market reaction and upgrade rate for charging across all portable Apple devices. I mean, they get ya with a 100 or so bucks for OS updates on laptops / desktops every year (or two) so why not for ipods and iphones. I mean have you ever seen a phone get so much better since coming to market? All that development work ain’t cheap to get done.
I have no data, but my gut tells me that future upgrades of the iPhone software will no longer be free if no one makes a stink about the iPod touch charge. Should we start a facebook group to protest?
