Naturally, there’s a reason why carriers around the world are increasing their video messaging and telephony services. According to the new study from ABI Research, this market will grow from $1 billion this year to over $17 billion by 2012!
The problem is that not all people will be able to afford the access to these advanced services. What this means is that the majority (90%) of all video service revenues will come from North America, Europe and Asia Pacific, while only 10% of revenues will come from the developing regions of the world — although, ABI Research suggests that these regions shouldn’t be neglected.

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.
