Dubai’s carrier Largest mobile distributor in the Middle East and Africa i2 has launched a new kind of cybercafé and flagship digital store at BurJuman to offer its shoppers new level of interactivity with the latest tech gizmos. For instance, customers can place orders via mobile phones provided on each table, access various mobile services, free Internet connection, as well as up to the minute news and information on mobile devices.
Yeah, they may be lacking that fancy Microsoft Table aka Project Milan, which T-Mobile is planning to integrate in its outlets, but this sounds promising nevertheless. For one thing, I hate being pitched on and on at the local mobile phone stores — i.e. if my carrier launches this kind of store, they would give me the option to sell to myself, and that would consequently results in higher satisfaction level on both sides.

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.
