Maybe there were no Independence Day in Canada yesterday, but RIM had a good reason to celebrate. After eight years of trying, the maker of the popular BlackBerry devices finally got the green light for entering the red market. 
To pursue its China dream, RIM has partnered with China Mobile to bring some push-email love to the world’s fastest growing economy. Initially, RIM will offer its popular BlackBerry 8700g handset to corporate customers in key cities including Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. BlackBerry addicts just couldn’t wait for the end of next month, and RIM already received 5,000 advance orders.
Guess, the next step will be localization — something they’ve already did for its customers in Japan.

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.
