Earlier in April, we speculated whether Sony Ericsson will make the PSP phone or not. It makes sense for Sony to walk this road along with its Swedish partner. Yes, that may cut margins for the Japanese giant, but their JV with Ericsson made them nothing but profits. Furthermore, I’ve no doubt about it that the market is finally ready for such device — a number of ripoffs from China almost prove that.
Now we have a new patent filling from Sony Ericsson, describing the gaming phone. There’s the rotating screen, as well as numeric keypad which can be turned into a game controls. Furthermore, the patent describes how games are interrupted when user receives a text message or a call. Naturally the game pauses and the device provides user with options whether he want to answer a call/see a text message or not… Hopefully, we’ll see this baby hitting the streets soon.

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.
