Despite various reports indicating that mobile is where the gaming industry goes, Sony Ericsson seems to be cautious with its mobile gaming plans. According to handset maker’s president Miles Flint there are still many hurdles to be overcome for mobile gaming, particularly with regard to the multiplayer experience. But the problems don’t end there — Flirt also added that issues with screen size, battery life, functionality and available services are the problem. “There is a constant set of trade offs. We haven’t yet seen that gaming is quite there in terms of performance,” Flint added.
On the other hand, we see Nokia investing heavily in its N-Gage platform. It’s hard to say who’s right here. Personally, I would love to see Nokia bringing high-quality games on market. Then, I guess we could see Sony Ericsson following that move with even more great games… What’s your take?

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.
