Wake3 — a PaloAlto, California based company — is working on a WebKit-based web browser for Windows Mobile devices. Those not familiar should know that it’s the same core behind Apple’s Safari and Nokia’s S60 Browser. Whoever used one of these knows how to appreciate it — after all the WebKit core is light and delivers the “full web experience” to the mobile devices.
The first version (video follows after the jump) doesn’t seem to support zooming in and out, but the promising future may be around the corner. Pocket Internet Explorer has ruled the Windows Mobile smartphones for too long without offering significant improvements during the year. The WebKit-browser is coming soon and more than ever, we’re ready for it!

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.
