Apple is being plain greedy and that is the end of it. The more I think about it the more I think it sucks and I don’t even own an ipod touch.

A one-time fee of twenty dollars doesn’t sound too much for html email and Maps with WiFi locator on an MP3 player.

I would, I don’t want an iPod that talks but I do want an iPod that emails and figures out where to turn next.

I would call it smart instead of stupid. Clearly, Apple will have invested “a bit” of money making these new features available for the iPod Touch and they will be getting “a lot” of money in return.

But iPhone doesn’t cost anything to upgrade? No hardware is added, like the post said, just some new apps.
