Thanks for your thoughts Donnacha. If you can shoot me an email at connect@jaxtr.com, I'd be happy to talk with you more about your experiences and see if there's anything that we can troubleshoot together.

When referring to Jaxtr, the figure of10 million users keeps popping up.

I mean, they might have 10 million plus installs of their Social Networking widget but it's rather misleading saying they have that many actual users of their service. What would be interesting is the number of registered accounts on the Jaxtr web that have made a call within the last 2-3 months.

It obviously depends on how many people opt for the subscription, but Jaxtr has 10M+ members to market it to. Assuming just a small % of them subscribe, that's reliable, recurring revenue every month, versus waiting on folks to recharge their accounts. It's like prepaid wireless companies versus the monthly plans offered by the main carriers.
