Editor's Notes
What are the key trends happening in mobile apps.
What does this mean for developers? More opportunity, more complications too

Or Toronto, or Vancouver
Great for web apps – especially if you have your own brand charge or refund an amount to an end user's mobile accountreverse a charge for an end user's accountadd/subtract a charge to/from an existing billingcharge to a previously made charge
