Isn't it interesting that, prior to the app store, people didn't even shake a stick at a $40-per-device word processor for their Blackberry, or Palm, or Win CE device? Now, after two years of app store goodness (or is it three?), people are griping about a $10-per-five-device word processor for their iOS stuff?

$30 for a full suite of apps for five devices is chump-change!

This griping is coming about because Google has convinced people that their crap is "free", when it actually isn't. You're paying for it through the price of advertising, which elevates the cost of goods, and through their theft of your personal information. I would rather pay for quality products than get screwed over by the "free stuff" vendors.
