Google policy do not accept developers from Poland (and some other countries) to post paid applications on Android Market. I am allowed to post only free apps...
why not just make a deal with someone in USA to post your Apps for you?
I doubt he'd get higher profit with paid apps.

Simplicity and risk exposure. He's clearly doing quite alright with ad-driven applications. I doubt he'd get higher profit with paid apps.
Parent sounds like genuine curiosity and not condescension, and when in doubt, be charitable! :-)
It always seems like HN and several other places are heavily skewed towards charging end users directly. But that's only one option open (And IMHO, it's not quite as scalable and fun as advertising income). If you look at what business models 'power' the web, it's still majority earning their revenue through advertising.
Well done :)

Nice answer, and makes sense, but was that last line really necessary? Parent sounds like genuine curiosity and not condescension, and when in doubt, be charitable! :-)
Cheers and good fortune!
One question I have I haven't seen answered. Most would agree that some apps are more ad friendly mediums than others. Since you're targeting ad income and making a variety of applications, are you picking application types or making design choices based on their ad potential? Any thoughts to share along those lines about designing for ad revenue?

Nice to see some success with advertising revenue. It always seems like HN and several other places are heavily skewed towards charging end users directly.

As for fun, money is money. I'll take it in any form.

Why can't you have payed apps?

Not quite as scalable as premium? I'd argue that premium is far more scalable than free. Open? Maybe not, but scalable for sure. As for fun, money is money. I'll take it in any form.
