The one question to ask yourself (esp. if you have a vertical market app) - how hard of a time would I have selling my app if I was competing a vendor that had an app that looked like that vs my current app?

Did I say that ?

No I didn't but three people three months so far . How much would you reckon on that costing.

90% of the functionality could be supplied very quickly (not necessarily in Fox). Spending a lot of time in how something looks may not be cost effective. For instance the yellow stickies.

BTW reading some Elmore Leonard at the moment (Fire in the Hole) enjoying it.
