iOS5 to have automatic updates?

[maflynn]

Based on this tuaw article iOS 5 will have apps update themselves automatically.

If true, I'm not sure I like this. I prefer controlling when or if apps get updates.

What do you guys think

Sounds good to me.

From the last part "or if your device has automatic download enabled for apps", it seems it's optional anyway so shouldn't be a problem for you

I think it's great, although I probably should, I don't read the reviews before updating an app to see if there are issues with it.... so I might as well have it update it for me.

I am sure there will be a setting to turn this on or off.
