in Why should I pay Microsoft? on Mobilitysite
From what I read it goes like this.

$99.00 year to be a licensed developer which includes 5 free app postings. So that's $19 per app to post which isn't bad.

$99.00 for each app there after

$0.00 if you are a student

I think this is a good thing and here is why. If you look at Apple's Appstore, which Apple and the media so proudly state that there are millions of apps. The majority of apps are absolute crap garbage get rich attempts from amature developers. It's one of the big knocks against Apple method. I've been using an iPhone for a while and I'm hard pressed to find apps to replace my old Windows Mobile Apps and the compariable ones that I do find are lacking in similar "power" features.

This method will help bring more serious developers/apps to the store which in turn provides a more marketible platform do to quality not quantity.

I think the only thing missing from their system is it should be free to post free apps. If a developer isn't going to make any money off an app, they should be allowed to freely post it, provided there is no potentional revenue gain..ie no adware and crap like that which is slowly becoming another problem on Apple's Appstore.

As for the 70%/20% profit sharing, you're paying to have your app hosted and marketed in a large central location easily accessible by every device owner. Goes a long way compared to hosting an app on your own site, spending time to ensure it's linkable and still hoping people find it.

There is a program that allows you to access your exchange notes and it works better than sync because it works over Outlook Web Access in similar fashion to push email. The program is called IMNotes you can find it in the App Store
