iPod touch Upgrade $19.99 - This Upgrade Should Be Free!
I just found out that it's going to cost $19.99 to upgrade my iPod touch. As far as I know, this is the first time Apple has charged for a iPod upgrade. Here are the reasons why I think Apple should not charge for this upgrade:
+ It's free for iPhone users
+ They should have disclosed it to iTouch buyers when many of them were deciding between the iPhone and the iTouch.
+ These features should have been in the iTouch when released.
