The choice to charge for OS update packets lies with the carrier. I've worked on building phone company billing systems -- I am sure they could make the OS updates free if they so chose. Android, the raw OS, can be updated by other means (see the ADP1), so your complaints should be lodged with the carrier, or possibly the device manufacturer. > I take it from your statement then from a technical point of view that > the SDK can not be used to allow users any choice as when to update if > it is being pushed from a carrier.
