    $126 million in revenue sounds very good. How much is this though in profit. Depending on costs such as marketing, a large revenue may only result in a marginal profit.

    The growth is more impressive and of greater value to share holders.

    That is great news for Skype and eBay. Out of all the option on the market... Skype ROCKS. iChat is the only thing I like better.

    Interesting, it's kind of obvious that they make huge profit since it's a big money sucker when especially when it comes to international calls.

    Skype is going well! Although it's rates are a bit expensive for some countries, Skype still is the most used VoIP client.

    Hm, 4 billion valuation. If I had 4 billion would I buy it to get 100 million return? Not likely, that is just 2.5%. I might buy it for 3 billion and hope some sucker will pay me 4 for it :-) OOops isn't this how credit crunches happen?
