Question and suggestion.

Why charge end users $2.99 for this app as most companies give the app for free to increase user base and only charge the websites for providing the app?

Or split the difference, 99c for the app and $xyz from a developer.

I would GLADLY pay $100 for a branded app that I can give away for free on iTunes for my site and this would be equal to 33 end user revenue. I would even consider a yearly fee (like SEO apps).

Let me know if you are interested as most vbforum owners will have a hard time convincing their users to pay $2.99 for an app when our sites are 100% free already.
