I get a lot of free apps. if they work ok and have utility then I look to upgrade to a paid app that has similar yet more function.
Some apps look awesome but are priced so outrageous like MLb and F1. The F1 timing app is amazing but not for $32
I'm guessing that since meaningful app development didn't start until developers had ipads in their hands it will be at least until November before we see a plethora of great apps hitting the market.

Well I've bought a bit more than 100$ worth of apps so far but I don't think I'll be buying many more. Maybe a few games and once I get to take the iPad in class I'll get iannotate.

Indeed!!! I took mine to a meeting today...was going to DL the big book...but the bloody 3g connection wouldn't punch through the churches walls! Caught a resentment in a meeting!!
Seriously though, I am disappointed in how slow some of the apps are to being updated. I guess it is ignorance on not knowing what is involved. But when I download an app, and it runs like an ipod app, I pretty much delete it. I wish I could keep up with the ones that are cool, but need updating.
Actually, I started a Google Docs note on it today about one that crashed...and need to add the ones that I try but delete right away.

Basically, your flaunting the fact that you don't have to spend Money on apps while the are millions that do.

Why not see the forum as a community that likes to be involved? If you don't want to be involved why not go some place else? Look, now we have both wasted some electrons.

I used to buy apps more often but now very rarely. It does seems I have all the useful apps I need already. That being said I don't often get new apps on my Mac either as I also already have the most useful ones and it isn't that often anything new gets written that interests me.
As far as iPhone apps go whenever I pay for one I always regret it these days. The last one I paid for was Shazam Red, as regular Shazam only allows 5 tags a month.
It really doesn't do anything for me that the free version used to. In the future I will be careful to upgrade apps if they are only limiting a feature to push their paid app. That being said I like Shazam so it wasn't any big deal.
