Not a bad rate: launched in June 2011, at 1 million users in November 2011, at 2 million users in April 2012. Mobile now accounts for 12 percent of FT.com subscriptions and 19 percent of traffic, the Guardian reports.
Would be interesting to see data from a news outlet with less high-end readers, since the primary issue with any HTML5 app is discoverability (finding the thing without having an app store to search) and permanence (a still-awkward process for saving the app as a home screen icon.)
