Unlike internet providership, the location where your software is used/bought 
and it's quality is largely geography-independent (barring timezone differences 
for support channels if you care about that). Even today, outside of the US 
there are ~100 million devices that share a technological background with 
MeeGo (=Qt), which can certainly be a valid business opportunity, *if* you 
have the right product. If Rovio based their operations on how many copies of 
Angry Birds they could sell in Finland at the time they originally wrote it, 
they would have ditched that project real quick.
