I'd say that you can charge whatever you like (to either Australian or US customers).
Just work out an acceptable price (one which takes into account reasonable fluctuations) and then convert across when you are ready as suggested by Andrew. You will generally find that US people will even pay the AUS$ price - because it is often less than what they expect to pay. In which case you make a killing.
