- Its annual revenue is on par with New Zealand’s GDP
- It has over 100B$ in cash, with which it could buy T-Mobile, Nokia, Netflix, Adobe, Twitter and RIM (who makes Blackberry).
- It also could use that money to build and run a station on the moon for 8 years, buy all their employees mansions, buy everyone in the world a meal at McDonald’s (including dessert), end world hunger for three years, hire the Russian military for two years, or buy all the sports teams in America and pay for the Olympics.
- 30% of smartphone users have an iPhone
- There are 600,000 apps in the app store, and they’ve been downloaded 25 billion times
