Apps added to iPod touch
What iPod Touch owners have been awaiting for a very long time is finally here - but at a price. Steve Jobs today announced that Apple has added five new applications to the iPod touch: Mail, Maps, Stocks, Notes, and Weather. Unfortunately, they have decided to charge $20 for the apps to existing iPod Touch owners. However, all new iPod Touch purchases from today onwards will include the apps for free. This is an example of bad customer service.
Without us existing iPod Touch owners, Apple wouldn’t have the money to furthermore develop it. We deserve these apps for free, as equally as new customers do. I really hope Apple fixes this - like they did with the iPhone $100 “rebate”. I must say, that was the most disappointing part of the keynote. $20 is a ridiculous price to pay for apps that most people already have from Jailbreaking their iPod Touches. Apple is simply encouraging more jailbreaks, and less upgrades to 1.1.3. Fix this now, Apple.
