At the recent SINOCES 2007 event in China, not that known company Hantel showcased its latest candybar-shaped TV-capable handset. No, I’m not talking this phone supports DVB-H nor DMB-T mobile TV standard, rather it does analog TV! One wonders if this is the right way to start with TV on a mobile phone — after all, that would use the existing programming already available in virtually all countries. On the other hand, there ARE reasons for companies pushing the proper mobile TV standards. Nevertheless, Hantel’s baby will certainly find its public in China – especially when you consider that it boasts the large touchscreen that is ideal for watch TV on the go, a camera and some sort of navigational wheel on the keypad. I doubt will see it exported outside of the world’s fastest growing economy, though.

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.
