Buying apps from app store - how many devices?

Hi,

I need a sat nav for my iPhone 4, prob going to buy tomtom.

My question is: Once you buy a app from the app store how many devices can you install it to ? (iPod touch, iPhone, iPad,)

I ask because I was wondering if you brought a app for your 3gs, wiped that phone and brought a iPhone 4 if you have to re-buy all those apps again or if iTunes will just let you sync them to your new phone.

Purchases are linked to you itunes store account.

If u have that account on a new device u just go and click buy again on an app you have bought in the past and it will say that you have bought it already and will download it again.
No charge.

Oh that's cool. I just did not want to spent £50 odd quid on TomTom for my iPhone 4 and then have to buy it again if I got Iphone 5.

Is there a limit to how many devices you can install a paid app onto?
