Thanks for the great ideas - some of our thinking has been along the same lines. One of our biggest barriers is funds, which means we have to push as hard and fast as we can before we are totally depleted. Design is something on our list, but neither of us are designers, and getting a good design will cost a fair amount. We have tried to provide them in physical format, but the price significantly exceeds that of a travel guide - I'm not sure if it makes sense. We haven't considered the fandango route - I guess it is a revenue stream that we should investigate. The iphone app is coming... but its not feature packed, because we had to outsource it, and as always, funds are limited.

I'd say go for the print version with the expectation that not too many people are going to buy it. There is a well known psyhcological device called price fixing that shows that people are more likely to buy/pay more for the mid range option when presented with a high priced option. Look at the basecamp signup page for this. People are predictably irrational. (check out that book for more good stuff like this; chapter 1 in particular for this example) Do you get to own the code for the iPhone app or are you beholden to one company for updates?
