Looks great and something every app developer could use (I've heard many horror stories of using mailto: links). However it might be hard to make money on this when others are giving this functionality away for free as part of a larger offering (like we do; see http://www.uservoice.com/iphone/).

Similarly, a product my company is working on, Recon API, has a freemium model for a different but similar suite of tools.

Sounds like something Urchin, which became Google Analytics, would have said :)
... and I don't see many people doing well competing against a free Google Analytics :)
Is this a case for a good product, or for deep pockets? :) nobody has dared GA, cause the product delivers. Not the case for everything that is free.

... And winter is coming. :)
