Apple's iOS 4 beams into unprepared world

Easy to find App Dates

If you want to know when you downloaded the last update, in iTunes, right click on the bar at the top of 'Apps' in your Library, and select 'Date Modified'. Voila. You can see the last download of it (and hence the last update).

The TIO is not for this kind of thing. The TIO is to settle disputes between you and a Telecommunications Provider (Phone or Internet).

If you don't read the fine print in a contract and are obliged under that contract to pay for data usage, it's your problem, not the carriers.

Whilst Telstra may be a rip off, they're 100% allowed to demand payment and not write it off or have the TIO tell them to do so.

The TIO is the most toothless tiger i've seen. They don't care about anything but revenue. Opening a case with the TIO immediately passes costs to the providers. Passing costs = increase in telcos costs.

If you can't read the fine print, you shouldn't be using the service. Jumping up and down like a petulant child does not do anyone any favours.
