Introducing SoonR, an application/service (or more likely the set of applications plus a hosted service) which connects your mobile phone to your Skype account, Outlook, and remote PCs. It consists of 3 parts:
- SoonR Talk
Allows you to Skype from your mobile phone and with a PC as your private operator connecting your calls through Skype. - SoonR Organizer
SoonR’s application integration makes it easy to use Outlook email, calendar and contacts from your mobile phone. - SoonR Desktop
Your phone can search, view, share and forward files from any PC.
SoonR works on any phone with a data plan and a browser (UPDATE: It does not need/use Java) and is not developed exclusively for Symbian OS devices. It would be very interesting to have a separate, more powerful, Symbian version of SoonR, especially with the Useful Skype not being that stable at the moment. I will keep myself informed about SoonR’s future developments and will keep you guys/gals posted about it.

Dusan Belic
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.
