I don't see the connection. Does a developer have to live in a 1st
World urban area? What about people in rural areas? What about poorer
people that can't afford broadband? Not all "developers" work for
Fortune 500 companies in office towers with T1s. Note that I'm _not_
arguing that Apple should provide delta updates, I'm just saying that
developer != rich 1st Worlder with bandwidth up the wazoo.

The OS team manages somehow.
