The method of claim 1, wherein at least one of the one or more device activities comprises a network access associated with a particular end-user device application or program, a particular network end point, a particular website, a particular content source, a particular content type, a particular transaction service, or a particular e-commerce service. 6. The method of claim 1, further comprising: based on the first information, generating a first bill associated with the first entity; andbased on the second information, generating a second bill associated with the second entity. 7. The method of claim 1, further comprising the network element providing or making available a report based on the first information or the second information. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more sources comprise the end-user device and the network source, and wherein the service usage information comprises a first charging data record (CDR) from the end-user device and a second CDR from the network source. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more sources comprise a first network source and a second network source, and wherein the service usage information comprises a first charging data record (CDR) from the first network source and a second CDR from the second network source. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more sources comprise the network source, and wherein the service usage information comprises a first charging data record (CDR) from the network source and a second CDR from the network source. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the first information or the second information identifies a particular device activity available to the end-user device. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more electronically-stored rules are configured to assist in allocating billing for the usage of the wireless network associated with the one or more device activities between the first entity and the second entity. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more electronically-stored rules are configured to assist in: including the first portion of the usage of the wireless network associated with the one or more device activities in the first information, andincluding the second portion of the usage of the wireless network associated with the one or more device activities in the second information. 14. The method of claim 13, wherein the first portion of the usage of the wireless network associated with the one or more device activities is associated with a first device activity of the one or more device activities, and wherein the second portion of the usage of the wireless network associated with the one or more device activities is associated with a second device activity of the one or more device activities. 15. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more electronically-stored rules define, at least in part, how to: determine an offset based on the service usage information,allocate the offset to the first information, andallocate a negative of the offset to the second information. 16. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more electronically-stored rules define, at least in part, how to: determine an offset based on the service usage information,allocate a first portion of the offset to the first information, andallocate a second portion of the offset to the second information. 17. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more electronically-stored rules define, at least in part, how to: determine an offset based on the service usage information and based on a user behavior,allocate a first portion of the offset to the first information, andallocate a second portion of the offset to the second information. 18.
