I think products like this try to cash in with the minimalist set, but basically I see it as a con to sell the virtue of a product with no features especially at such a premium price. I can buy MS Office for $80 and I get Word, Excel and PowerPoint. I don’t know what these folks are thinking.

Rather disappointed. And 10% off? What is this, Wal Mart? How about we price it like the iPad version until it’s at least as stable as that version. Markdown support is nice, but incomplete. It only recognizes *one* of the two styles you can use. Honestly, even dragging the window around the screen exposes several usability issues. It’s sad. I really do like it on the iPad. Should have stuck with that version.
