I figured I would let him figure out Step 5 the hard way ;-) Unless you have an absolutely freaking amazing app there is no profit. I have an app on the market that I think is pretty cool. There is a free version and a donate key for $0.99 that unlocks a few extra features. I've made about $170 or so since last October... With the amount of time I put in to it I think I am making less than a penny per hour. But I do it for the fun of programming and because it is an app that I wanted on my phone and couldn't find any that fully suited my needs... -- There are only 10 types of people in the world...
