Surely that goes against the trades description act since it clearly states that the V2 software is included and it’s not. Damn you Apple!!

Just bought an ipod touch 8GB from Comet in the UK, after spending 2 days chasing around Comets in the Midlands which advertised them as “In stock”, but weren’t.

There website says “APPLE IPOD TOUCH 8GB V2 – Revolutionary multi-touch interface – watch your movies, TV shows, and slideshows on the 3.5″ widescreen display and surf the web with Wi-Fi. Now with the updated V2 software.”

Plugged it in – V1.1.4 software, do I want to buy V2? Phoned the store “Apple says V2 is 1.1.4. V2.0 is Version “!!!!!!!!!! Pretty box, rubbish and deliberately misleading service.

Mot particularly impressed!!

That is indeed crappy Gwen. It’s very sneaky of them to sell you a new one that you then have to pay to upgrade to do all the stuff they advertise on it. More negative points to Apple I reckon!

FYI, I just got my brand spanking new iTouch in the mail today and it DID NOT come with the 2.0. So, i have to go and spend another $10 US, to get it to do all of the cool stuff that helped sell me on it in the first place. That is crappy!

Fire up iTunes, go to the iTunes Store then you’ll see the ‘App Store’ link.

I really am becoming a Luddite - I actually prefer the form factor and feel of my Motorola PEBL, which is about as low-tech a phone as you can get these days! iPhones are pretty cool though to be fair, and if they were on Vodaphone they'd be even cooler!

Had the same messages on Friday, so waited until Saturday to upgrade.

I upgraded as I’ll jailbreaking my touch at some point, prior to getting iPhone’s for the technical guys I work with, they spend enough time from their desks fixing problems around the office that something like this *should* make them more productive, if nothing else with a shiny toy like an iPhone there is a better chance it won’t be left on the desk

And of course the fact I’d quite like an iPhone has nothing to do with it
