PhoneThe new Wayfinder takes mobile phone GPS-navigation to the next level with the latest version of the flagship product Navigator, introduced to the market at the CeBIT exhibition in Hanover on March 9-15. The Navigator is loaded with a number of useful functions, designed to please the traveler. The new features include a unique zoom-in world map, currency converter, guidebook and a weather-service. The new Wayfinder Navigator reaches the market in April. The era of paper maps and paper guidebooks is now at an end.

In addition to GPS-navigation in Europe and North America with more than three million Points of Interest, it’s possible to zoom in any chosen location on the planet with the new Wayfinder Navigator. The interface of Wayfinder Navigator has gone through a sweeping update and is now even more user-friendly, attractive and distinct. The Service Window, an additional new feature, provides the user with information on weather, currency rates and currency converting. Future add-ons will be presented to the user in the Service Window.

The new version of Wayfinder Navigator is introduced to the market on CeBIT in Hanover and will reach the consumer market in April 2006.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
