S60 browserI just finished reading Will’s post, and I just couldn’t help it – the real web browsing is getting to Windows Mobile. Microsoft’s strategy was always a mystery to me. After they did announce Deepfish, a year and a half after Nokia released its OSS browser.

Will, did you know that we Symbian people have been browsing real web pages for some time? No really – Nokia’s Safari-based web browser comes with all S60 3rd edition smartphones. So, if we put a year and a half in the formula, we get that Windows Mobile-based smartphones with 5 MP cameras coming in Q3 2008. :)

Now, let’s praise Windows a bit. I like that ZenZui and think Microsoft did the right thing for giving ZenZui team the freedom to innovate. They came up with a revolutionary UI, that I wouldn’t mind seeing on the Symbian-based smartphones.

Let’s get back to the (Symbian) news. Today we saw the Nokia 6110 Navigator passing the FCC and more leaked photos of the upcoming Sony Ericsson M610i. Plus, we saw the N96 concept dream.

Till next time, till next reply…

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.
