I think the user should decide, wheter the update should be done at once 
or later. Of cource an advise of batterystate should be done.

Greetings Bastian

|
| I'd say that if GSM downloads are going to be slow, then downloads 
should also occur if the phone is plugged into a PC and network bridging 
is set up -- not everyone will have a wifi router.
|
| Since the updates will require a certain amount of time and battery 
power, the update should only happen once the battery power is above a 
certain level whether plugged in for charging or not.
|
| For example, if the battery was completely drained, and the user plugs 
it into a PC, if the charger can't keep up with the drain of installing 
updates, then updates shouldn't happen just because it's plugged into a 
charger.
|
| Thoughts?
