Slacker711,

I'm sure if there is a demand for an application, the carrier will offer it. I see BREW as a win-win-win-win.

The CARRIER gets more customer billable minutes from many the many application downloads and a cut of the application revenue.

The DEVELOPER gets roughly 80% of the the application revenue. Also, the developers get a easy platform to write applications to.

Q gets paid by the carrier for the BREW platform download and a cut of the application revenue.

The USER gets useful applications downloaded quickly and easily using less air time minutes resulting is less frustration.

IMHO, the potential revenue generated by BREW for Q is much more than most can imagine.
