very shortsighted of you. for the ipod touch users it adds 5 more applications which may or may not be worth $20. iPhone users are paying a monthly fee so they are essentially paying for it anyway.
Excuse me Matt, but I believe you are missing out on one very important point - new Touch buyers are getting this damn thing for FREE. For the same price as the rest of us paid a few weeks ago!!! Plus, the five apps which it comes with are worth diddly squat in the UK (unless of course you live in 'Lun-duun') and as usual the UK pays more for these apps than the US - by 3GB at today's exchange rate (Ouch!!). I'm sick of apple cultists trying to justify bad business practices!! I know I'll be taking my money elsewhere (where they can appreciate my loyalty)and other users should seriously think about doing the same.
