I can't believe people didn't get refunds right away. When I first got my iPad my then 3yo bought a few things in a game he was playing. When I saw the bill I was horrified that a young child could do that and super pissed.

I called Apple and demanded my money back, and they gave it back, along with instructions on how to require a password for in-app purchases or disable them completely. Personally I think in-app purchases should require a password by default.
