Did Apple say anything regarding feature updates and whether the iPad will fall under the iPod Touch's paid update scheme or the iPhone's free updates?

In the earnings call, Apple announced that with recent accounting rule changes, they would be able to estimate the cost of updates into the price/cost of the iPod Touch (and likely the iPad), so they could do free updates. So I would suspect that for the most part there would be free updates, to a point, then you would pay for an upgrade, much like you do for your OS on your computer.
