Hey Frank,
Smart-Thinker uses a 10 portal license and a 100 Enterprise license. A lot of developers are now charging for a single portal, but that is quite harsh as I like to specifically break my sites up onto single portals if they are anything serious.
I blogged about DotNetNuke portal licensing - you may find it interesting...
I personally don't have time to maintain single product licenses, so I bunch all Smart-Thinker products into a Suite (they function better together anyway) and instead of charging $70 for a single module and then x% of that for upgrades, I use a hybrid model where you get the whole suite for $70 and supprt/upgrades for 2 months after that. I give a 30% discount to customers who purchase support blocks for a year. This model allows me to spend more time developing and less time dealing with product pricing, upgrades and fiddling around with customer accounts, but it's not 100% perfect - it depends on your situation and requirements as normal.
