You can't release a time limited app of any kind through the Apple Store.

The iPhone business model does not work like that for non-moblies. Apple will not let you release a time limited application of any kind.

Instead, you have to create a "lite" version that has some but not all the full application's features and release that for free. The lite version can have a link to upgrade to the full version but it must be a functioning app in its own right.

So, you need to start over from scratch thinking about your app. You need to develop two versions.

You'll need to manage the activation over the network - if you try storing the "shareware" date locally, then you'll create a state where users can just wipe the app and re-install every 29th day. But then if the user always runs your application in airplane mode, they'll never contact the activation server, so you'll need to manage activation locally :-).
