Although we are getting used seeing mobile phones expanding their functionality every day, this one came as a surprise. Apparently, a research team of Mechanical Engineering Polytechnic College in Dattewal village of Moga district in Punjab was able to fly a scaled-down version of an airplane with the help of a mobile phone that worked as a remote control. Naturally, a special software was developed in order to control the plane. We’re not aware which platform the phone runs, but we’re quite confident it’s either Windows Mobile or Symbian. Nice work folks!

Dusan Belic
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.
