I read "that amount of data from each Android/Blackberry phone would be a lot more thn 10 GB a day." as "each device is generating over 10 GB a day." It makes more sense as a total, and really, 10 GB a day is NOTHING. In scientific computing, terabytes a day isn't too unusual, so it's certainly no big deal to store and process 10 GB a day.
