Thread: ipod touch updates $19.99

http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,14...l?tk=nl_iwxnws

well according to me its pretty lame to be charging for all these

better jailbreak

any jailbreak methods out for v 1.1.3?

Nope, no jailbreak for 1.1.3 yet. When the update first came out, I thought to myself, who in their right mind would pay $20 for something you can get for free (jailbreak? But then I bit the bullet and bought the upgrade. Honestly, it is totally worth it. The apps themselves are great of course, but the new features are also really useful. I love how you can rearange the icons, and I especially like being able to add a webpage icon to my home screen. It makes it easy to access this forum from my touch...
I will add a poll to this thread if you don't mind muzik, so we can see who will buy the apps!

I agree with you on you don't gain that much from the apps. BUT, you get the ability to rearange the home icons very easily (without using customize), and you can set web pages as icons which is very useful. Plus, my iPod is now running much faster than when it was jailbroken. And I'm good to go for when the SDK is released.

well i did see a video of the 1.1.3 v n i liked it
but after spending on the touch im not allowed to spend more on the thing
well i hope if the sdk or a v1.1.4 comes out they should make the 1.1.3v free(like duh!!)
well i hope atleast the 3rd party software should be free!!!!

version 1.1.3 itself is free, but to get iPhone apps and ability to move icons etc, u need to pay $20

I wasn't happy about it at first, but man is that worth it!
