Another application for people who are into exercising and collecting your stats. But, Beauty Walker is at the moment only available for the users of the DoCoMo’s FOMA 903 and above series handsets in Japan.
Like the Nokia Sports Tracker, Beauty Walker can also find use of your Bluetooth GPS receiver, thus providing you with more information about your exercise and the calorie consumption. Furthermore, the application allows you to be proactive about your goals — you can set the goals of food that you need to eat and it will alert you when you’ve burned enough calories to eat it.
However, unlike the other similar application, the focus of the Beauty Walker is (at the name says) on walking, not running. Guess the idea here is to target a broader audience, even those who are not that into sport activities.

Dusan Belic
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.
