I noticed yesterday that Android apps are now listed with New Zealand dollars prices, approximate - noted as ~NZ$2.85 for example...

Yep! A welcome change.

They always included an indicative amount to left under the item description, but it's nice to have it moved over and represented as "the price"....though the real price does remain the amount in the currency of the origin country.

Yeah, so I wonder - does this factor in CC fees? probably not. Still at least Google are finally looking at these basic problems with Android market.

Fees will vary from card to card, bank to bank, even customer to customer....so the price is the price. :-)

This will be really sweet for people trying to sell apps too, I assume the Americans would have assumed $1NZ ~= $1US, since prices were displayed in the developers currency previously
