If you absolutely must offer a trial, and the Market won't support it, you could offer a trial version of your app with some sort of kill switch (the application sets a flag and tells itself to stop working after 10 days) and a paid version that does not do this. It would not prevent a truly determined person from circumventing your terms, but given the nature of Android, why couldn't somebody just hack the Market app to ignore trial periods anyway? My 2c
