First, there has been no announcement of any kind of his charging for this app. So, why the accusation?
And secondly, if this does indeed become an app with a paid registration, it is well worth it. Why do people expect everything for free?
Do you work a job, or are you just a winey-rich-kid who gets everything for free? If you work a job, don't you expect that your employer pays you for your work? So why do we expect that those who spend their time and talent creating such useful applications do so with no compensation at all?
Those who complain about this have obviously never had to deal with using a PDA on the Windows Mobile side, where the likes of Handango charges 10-30 for every application, and at the same time strangles the developers as they only receive a small portion of the price charged.
I appreciate all the free apps that are out there. And, I have donated to devs who create worthy apps and interact well with the end users. And, I have purchased apps that I felt were essential and worthy.
