    Regarding the listing at Apple shop, instead of loose tips I advise you buying a good book on Amazon or another bookstore, that was what I did last month :) Some also include outsourcing tips, but not about prices, it all depends on your project...

    Apple charges $99 to have an account with them. I heard they have very strict approval process, and a lot of good apps are denied listings. On the other hand, Android is an up and coming platform, open, and inviting.. From what I learned, you can sell more on iPhone .. but Android app has a low barrier of entry.

    You sure can outsource your project.. but make sure you have good intellectual property safeguard in place. The cost varies.. good programmers are never cheap..

    The Android market is not, currently, as good as the iOS market for making money.

    Apple DOES reject some good apps, but always for violating the ToS somehow. (This can be as simple as only supporting one orientation, ie, not auto rotating.)

    What kind of apps are you talking about? I can't comment on the costs involved until I know what we're talking about, specifically.
