I think this needs to be worked on and is not a good function. I didn't buy a DoCoMo ht-03a (magic) because of it. I want control to be able to update via wifi and not pay packet charges. In Japan, monthly packet fees start at about $5 and max out at $60. Even if I don't use packets, your update could result in me seeing a $60 bill. This only makes sense for those people who are ready for a $60 bill every month because then if an update comes, they are at the limit anyway and won't be charged any more. For us users who are trying to keep below $60 per month, your automatic updates means we can't control our costs by limiting our usage. Marketing-wise, maybe the target user is people who expect a $60 bill every month. As an app developer, I'd like to see wider adoption. The iphone here starts at the same $5 per month and then you pay by usage up to a maximum (same $60). How can iphone push updates that don't cost the user but android can't?
