Richard, I don't think it's up to you to actively discourage people not to buy an app, if you decide it's too expensive then don't buy it, but everybody has to make that choice.
When Fleksy was released they charged more as well and no trial version was available jfor some time. At least the Braill and Touch app has a trial version so it's easy to try it and then decide if it's worth $20 to you. Also keep in mind that public sentiment may have an impact and if the developers is monitoring the list he or they may very well decide to make it a bit cheaper. I definitely don't think we should judge them a month before the app will be released, after all, they didn't have to let us know and I think it's nice that they did announce it. I remember when Sendero LookAround came out people were complaining that it was $4.99 or whatever it costs and I couldn't believe the debate that arose from a few posts and how people were outraged that instead of $4.99 it wasn't $2.99 or $1.99. Let's maintain the perspective here, even $20 is affordable for most people and if it works amazingly well then I certainly don't care whether it's $9.99, $14.99 or $19.99.

If the Braille Touch sticks with their pricing plan of $19.98 for the entire pacakage, I will certainly be encouraging people to not buy it. I think it is way over priced.
