take a look at the software pricing now, and - do something similar.
palm is very well known for cheap software.. if you throw a $20 price
tag on a game, people will complain, its simple.
however, 'commercial' companies are greedy, and have to pay for some
fat guy in a suit to sit around and tell people what to do. if your a
shareware developer, without this overhead.. $5 -> $15 should be ok for
you :)
