Hey tom, 100% growth of mobile apps overall doesn't constitute 100% increased mobile app usage, it just means more downloads. This is usage, meaning how much people are engaging with the app. Even so, given that mobile gambling is in its infancy and that serious marketing dollars have not been put behind it to the same extent that it has been put behind the app industry as a whole. We expect mobile gambling to increase dramatically as things ramp up.

Actually, both mobile app and mobile web site usage - not downloads - are up well over 100%. On mature sites I've worked on, growth is clocking in closer to 200-300% annually. So it does seem kind of weak to tout 94% growth when anyone actually working on mobile looks at it. Even the CAGR over the 5 years of 2010-2014 is currently projected in excess of 100% (http://gigaom.com/2010/04/12/mary-meeker-mobile-internet-will-soon-overtake-fixed-internet/ http://gigaom.com/2010/04/12/mary-meeker-mobile-internet-wil...)
