As a technical person, you don't know how valuable this will be for me. I'm so there!

Honestly, when I see these screenshots I don't want to buy this product. These shots are from an *ancient* version of PocketPC OS and there is a huge chance that this application won't run on WM2003SE or WM5 *if* it has not been explicity tested there too.
The company who wrote this program should release more recent screenshots cause it makes the app look ancient (even if it's not).

No Demo?
They should also provide a demo version, which last time I checked was not available. I am not willing to gamble $30 when there is so much poorly written software out there. It might be the greatest program ever written, but in my experience companies that write great programs are quick to provide demo versions.

I found the FAQs very helpful.

Is this a test?
Yes, all indications are that this is actually a test. If it was not a test, there would be something to justify the existence of this bullet item -- obviously, there isn't.
How about this?
Yes, again, this is just a test.

$30 !! I reckon they should put down the price to something like $10(I mean it). I need this app, but, no way I'm going to spend so much on a simple app

Have you ever tried http://www.pocketdraw.com/
It seems like a lot more professional looking, similar to a cut down Visio

Demo Version
A demo version of First Diagramming (1.1) is now available at the Matter and Motion website. The screenshots, unfortunately, are still old.
