The mere $100M size seems big for that segment. For example, focus on the Indian iDev community whose investment needs are not that great. You can start with just $1M fund and invest in 100 iDevs for $10K each for 10% stake fixed. That much money will easily keep the dev going for 1 yr. Now iPhone apps are not that much time-consuming to develop, so in 1 yr, a dev could develop 4 apps - total 400 apps. Out of these, there are bound to be some great apps that could reach the top-chart of App Store and return significantly on the total investment. iFund still needs to harness the potential of the independent developers fully.

I have faith that this shift will be a great thing to the independent developer communities and small software companies and mobile start ups... The revolution it´s on... the migration of "everything you can do on your PC or Mac" to mobile devices is unnstoppable. Nice article.
