HELLO All, When viewing this thread, I realized that only my name was pasted to it. So here goes again. When all of the noise about this supposed gliche started to circulate, everyone was afraid to charge their phone or plug it in to the computer of feaar that iOS 7 would upgrade one's device. Fortunately, this is not the case. Just think about what kind of trouble Apple would be in if iOS 7 was automatically installed on the device.
Just yesterday, I plugged my iPhone 4 into the computer. I received the usual popup that iTunes will give when there is an upgrade. Of course, I press thecancel button and I was placed in the main screen of iTunes with no harm done. What surprise me more was that that this activated the popup on the phone. I was given 2 options: to download or to cancel. You can guess what I tapped on. Raul is correct that this feature has been on the iOS platform for a while andon this phone since 6.1.2 because I have been on the fence about jailbreaking as soon as I replace it with a new one. Well, it's taken so long that it's part of the settings announcement. So for those who are getting stressed out about this, just relax. No one is forcing you to upgrade. Apple can't afford anymore litigation and bad publicity. JMO.
