The Helium thing is surely enticing knowing that they're offering what? $20(if I remember correctly) a month for unlimited data? That's like super cheap, especially in the United States. Though I haven't dug deep enough to know what the 'catch' is. There should at least be some downside.
I think OP is talking about this:

Although not sure if OP has made a profit with this, what are your thoughts on GEM.
