As of the end of 2009 airAveer is $50 and Shu SA Lite is $45 ... these are prices that might put them both in a little more demand, but would still like to read some reviews!

Still, 60+MB on the Mac is ridiculous. Its even worse than Janus's Mac app size. Hopefully this product will bring about competition to this new unexplored market.

Then, whoever paid £250 for Shu will feel like they've had a raw deal. @Dark Vyper : Hey, a colleague of mine had noticed the issue with Mac Shu apps. He compiled one of his SWF projects using shu, and while the PC version was a justifiable 16mb, the Mac version was over 63mb. That's quite an incredible difference. My 5 cents? Wait a while. In six months, the entire playing field will look a whole lot different. @Alex : The issue is this, in the very near future, this same product will be avaiable via either Adobe themselves, or a group of Open Source developers.

This tool is priced less than the likes of Zinc and for £250 you get both PC and Mac versions. I disagree on price posts.

The Shu devs need to get customers and they aren't going to get many with a new unproven product with such a high price tag. I've also noticed the Shu apps you make on the Mac are quite massive :S If they lowered the price to £100 or less it might be more appealing... I agree with Lee.
