About iPod touch OS 3.1 upgrade pricing.

route-softwareupdate-20090909

Apple announces the availability of iPhone OS 3.1 and iPod touch OS 3.1 at the “It’s only rock and roll, but we like it” event on Wednesday 09.09.2009. iPhone OS 3.1 is available for no charge for any iPhones. iPod touch OS 3.1 is also available for free when upgrading from OS 3.0.x but costs $4.95 for those still running iPod touch OS 1.x and 2.x.

As usual a few “tech journalists” didn’t really listen nor throughly read what Apple said. That includes Leo Laporte (TWiT) and Tom Holwerda (OSNews).

Once again, if your iPod touch is running OS 3.0.x then you will be able to download the upgrade for free. If your iPod touch is still running OS 1.x or 2.x then you’ll have to pay $4.95 to get the OS 3.1.

Apple: It's only rock and roll but we like it.

Well, it’s that time of the year again when Apple unveils its new line-up of iPod and anything related to it.

First and foremost, I wouldn’t be anywhere near Yerba Buena Center to cover the event. Last year I was in the vicinity during the Special Event. Well, if anyone considers 400 miles is a “really short” distance, then I’m nearby The Yerba Buena Center to cover this event.

Since I won’t be there at all, because I don’t get any invitations; even if I did I wouldn’t want to spend the money at this time. Here are the “It’s only rock and roll, but we like it” live coverage links:

As usual, links will be added as they are somewhat confirmed. Apple’s “It’s only rock and roll, but we like it” Special Event starts at 10:00AM Pacific Time/01:00PM Eastern Time/05:00PM UTC/GMT 09.09.09.
