Arguably the most popular game ever is about to hit the handset near you. In case you’re wondering, I’m talking about Tetris.
The new mobile Tetris will be a multiplayer game, allowing players to compete with one another “over the air,” regardless of their locations, using their mobile carrier’s network.
Multiplayer gaming on a title like Tetris is simple, thanks to the EA Mobile’s proprietary platform. Players can choose to play against friends or let the system select a worthy opponent. Dueling pairs can block one another’s efforts to clear lines and play on one of two multiplayer modes – “Ultra” allows gamers to race each other on a two-minute clock and “Forty Line” challenges them to clear 40 lines before their opponent.

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.
