I’ve already talked about Nokia’s plan to open the stores in the US. Well, here it comes. Beginning on June 24th, Chicago’s world-famous ‘Magnificent Mile’ shopping district will be home to the first Nokia Flagship Store in the United States, the second to be opened in the world. Nokia said it will be designed to elevate the often humdrum task of buying a wireless device into the kind of pleasurable shopping experience normally associated with exclusive upscale boutiques.
Beside all the latest smartphones, Nokia Flagship Store will also be home to the first Vertu Lounge “store-in-a-store” in the United States.
It will be fancy as one can be (state-of-the-art interactive multimedia displays ware mentioned). They say nothing compares to Apple, but… Nokia certainly has the money to put on!
Next stop – Fifth Avenue, New York – fall of 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.
