I had the pleasure of beta testing the app for a while before it was launched and thought the price cheap. It's really interesting to see how many people have come up with issues with either pricing or the features without trying the app first.

But even more interesting are the "reviews" that came out immediately after the app was launched. Reviews by people who obviously had not tested or even purchased the app. They judged it based on screen shots and their own assumptions. Gizmodo being the prime example here.

Given the pricing expectations of the Mac App Store, people's tendency to pay based on how easy they think it was to build the app (something this minimalistic practically codes itself) and the mentality that if I don't find something useful, nobody else must either, I really feel bad for people who are new to the app business.
