Bringing iPhone in Britain will add more profits and publicity to any carrier which wins the right to carry the device in the country. Earlier this year, we’ve heard that Vodafone will most likely get the rights to sell Apple’s handset in Europe. Now, we have another contender – Orange. Apparently, executives from both carriers are in the midst of negotiations with Apple to grab the exclusive rights for the UK market.
At present, mobile phone retailers in the country are receiving emails and phone calls on a daily basis asking when the iPhone will be released, where they can buy it and how much it will cost. It is expected that Apple announces its partner-carrier for Europe by September, with a launch scheduled for mid-December. (via: Mad4MobilePhones)

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.
