I just like to let of some steam. :angry:

In the GP32 scene almost everything is free, donated by the developers, only a few things cost money but they are well worth it.

In the phone/series 60/n-gage scene it is the total opposite. Developers charge money for every fart they make while touching their keyboards. The piece of 'software' that set me up to this rant is this. Every (series 60) phone even has a bloody calculator!

Thank you for your attention, it will not happen again.

Edit:
Of course their are some positive exceptions (although they are rare) like the author of this excellent asteroids clone.

Edit2: Link repaired
 
The first links buggered dude. I didnt really know there was much of a phone scene :). Is it mainly for sybian stuff? U know of any places that you can d/l homebrew java stuff that will work on my v500?
 
But the guys make money out of it! I suggest we all vote it Junk (atm; 4 votes, all zero... maybe there is hope after all).

I'm getting a PocketPC very soon, and I really hope the software available for that isn't ALL commercial. Luckily, I've heard of a completely free Genesis emu (although it's more applications I'm worried about).
