iPhone activationHope you’re not one of the iPhone owners that reported an activation problem. Apparently, many people have complained of having a problem activating their brand new iPhones. According to AT&T, their servers just couldn’t handle the volume of activation requests. Talk about being ready…

Anyway, people are angry and now AT&T is there to suck up, as (not) surprisingly, no one seems to blame Apple for this. I find both parties partially guilty — at least Apple should be responsible for selecting AT&T over other carriers (not that I have anything against AT&T).

Anyway, the carrier’s spokesman Michael Coe said that they are working to solve the problem on an individual basis with customers who were impacted. Hopefully, this will be resolved quickly and you’ll be using your beloved iPhone as you always wanted. :)

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.
