The only apps I have purchased for a real amounts of money are from Rock or Cydia. Most of them were $10+ and to be honest I use them everyday. Apps such MyWi 4.0, My3g, IntelliScreen, Wifi Sync, and many others get daily use from me and and I am more than happy with what I paid. Granted, AT&T and Apple aren't likely huge fans of these types of Apps, but I think that is a huge mistake on their part. Android too is hamstrung by Verizon with what they are allowed to give developers access to on their phones. If these restrictions weren't in place I really believe that there would be so many more unique and USEFUL Apps than there are now. The really useful (jailbroken) Apps go beyond porting websites to cocoa.
