Anyone else surprised? I'm not being sarcastic. Hasn't Angry Birds already made > $20 million? If not, isn't it close enough?

It's likely somewhere around 7-8 million, give or take. And, I have a feeling alot of that goes to Rovio, the developer of Angry Birds.

So, I guess EA's in-house "8lb. Gorilla" homegrown studio and mini-publisher for smartphones was stillborn, so they acquired one. Smart move. Chillingo has had a load of #1 app store hits from various developers; they seem to know how to pick 'em.
