You were forced to pay who to upgrade what?

I agree that Apples reasoning for charging for the Touch updates sounds shady, but you're comparing a touch (NOT a phone) to a nexus one which is a phone. If you compare it to the iPhone the updates are included.

Did you really buy a Nexus ONE to replace your touch and don't use the phone portion of the Nexus?

Of course not. But my choice to buy the N1 is influenced by both my experience with the Touch and my girlfriend's phones, first an iPhone 3G, and now 3GS.
