You would need a machete to go further west.

Question: don't the pegs at the bottom get in the way when you're typing? I wish they were half the size.

"After all, selling a hundred thousand copies of your app for $1.99 is much better than selling five copies for $49.99."

Even if those users are costing you more than two bucks to support? This really depends entirely on the app. When you factor in things like push notifications, syncing services, customer service, updates, etc... There's a point where lowering the price can be a bad idea, even if it means more buyers.

I had so many great toys when I was a kid. Legos were awesome. Star Wars was fantastic. But I think I gotta go with Transformers, specifically Omega Supreme. So so cool.

I bought Awaken and I've been pretty happy with it. The main thing I like is that you can select a playlist and have it slowly fade in the volume—much nicer way to wake up than having it suddenly kick in at full volume. Plenty of other nice features too.

adi: You're welcome, glad you like it! We're working on a major update to both the iPhone app and the Mac widget that will add a lot of new features and improvements. One of the biggest changes in the widget will be improved syncing that automatically opens synced deliveries.

Prices are finally starting to update! Delivery Status touch is 99 cents now. Edovia's apps are all 99 cents as well. App Cubby's apps are all 50% off. Sophiestication's apps (including the excellent Groceries and Tipulator) are 99 cents.

We're going to extend our sale through Sunday. I think Edovia is extending their sale too.

Happy Birthday, App Store!

Unfortunately many of us are having problems updating our prices in the App Store. I changed the price of Delivery Status touch about 15 hours ago, but the price still hasn't updated. Apple seems to be doing some maintenance that's preventing any changes from getting pushed out. We're still planning on doing a 24 hour sale as soon as we're able to.

Delivery Status touch will be on sale for 99 cents tomorrow. http://junecloud.com/software/iphone/delivery-status-touch.html

I think the first step in fixing the economy is to stop giving away all this free stuff. How are we supposed to stimulate the economy when we're getting stuff for free? So, let me take one of these off your hands and I'll do my part by buying two more. Promise!

Free ice cream for everyone? I'm pretty sure that'll fix it.
