      i never thought mobile gaming would take off, and in the USA it wouldnt have if China didnt start it off so much.
      and CHina is growing FAST
      a bit off topic but they will be needing much more OIL in the next few years, you think oil prices are high now ?

    2. I recently did a deal with MTel into 3HK etc on multiple items of content there after my previous partner in China failed to deliver the goods so to speak! – I hope it turns out to be a good deal later in the year for me – it’s a marketplace to be explored for sure.
