I leave my iPad plugged into the charger 24/7 and the WiFi is always on. I had to make it install the 7 update this morning, but it was soon after they made it available so it most likely would have downloaded it automatically. I always plug my iPhone in overnight to charge it and leave the WiFi on. I think it is supposed to ask before installing an update even if it downloads it automatically. I sure hope so. I wonder if there is a way to stop automatic downloads without disconnecting the charger and/or turning off WiFi?
