I've been using AirMiles for a while and find it very useful, but it does seem a bit expensive for a Palm program. Anyone know of any other shareware/freeware that does the same kinds of things?

I've thought about doing this for a while now because there are features absent from the
current apps out there that I'd like to see as well and I do enjoy developing handheld-based apps.
The problem is that these sorts of things can take a LOT of time to do properly, mostly in terms of translating human program rules and lawyer-ese into code.
My question to those who think that the $30 for AirMiles is too much would be:
How much WOULD you pay? $5? $10? $20?
What features would you like to see?
How important would things like reconciliation with your online account(s) or bonus/specials notification be?
Would these make it worth $30?
Would you be willing to pay for (some of) this on a subscription basis?
Please feel free to drop me an email message
as well as writing back here.
I've been doing Palm development for a couple years now and have toyed with doing this on the side from time to time.
I'd be willing to really throw in on it and mold something close to FT'ers desires if I thought I could eat off it in some part.
Thanks,
JD
