That’s almost double than the $90 million they made in 2008, and more than 5 times the $30 million they made in 2007. After the 50/50 revenue schism with operators, those ar some pretty pennies.

They’re already deploying their “Life Tools” services to emerging economies, devising data such as crop prices and weather condition reports available to the people whose lives depend on agriculture. How much money can they make when tens or even hundreds of billions of customers ar paying a $1 or $2 monthly fee?
