There is an interesting survey a guy conducted in the Apple developer community.

You can check out the results here (http://www.streamingcolour.com/blog/2011/09/28/results-ios-game-revenue-survey/)

The bad thing I read there is that you can't make "good" money. You'll be either filthy rich or getting close to zero :'(

Rather to post a new thread, its seen Apple have being lost those patent battles.

While Apple won over Samsung (with its original Galaxy Tablet), then they lost with big balls to Motorola instead, which have managed to ban Apples Iphone sales in Germany (by now very short time). Those damn standand patents (I do heard EU is bering invistate those throught). Howover one of those patent Motorola won was not a standard patent....

So Apple is not that strong with those patent battle as you think, and me think its should have act more that way Microsoft did with its patent. Microsoft earn more money on Android rather than Windows Phone by now. Etc Apple is have been backfired back.

So yes Steve Job might want to destroy Android, but its have been failed totally....
