If Prada, Armani, Levi’s and Diesel can do it – why wouldn’t TAG Heuer release its own mobile phone as well. Yap, they’re going to…
According to Reuters the famous Swiss watchmaker, part of French luxury goods group LVMH, is working alongside Modelabs (the folks behind Levi’s phone design) to release “a series of luxury mobile phones.” Heard that — not one device but a “series.”
Apparently, TAG fans will have to wait for the second half of next year, when we may see such TAG celebrities as Kimi Raikkonen, Brad Pitt and Tiger Woods suddenly start using new cellphones. Hopefully, we’ll actually see at least a single powerful phone (i.e. smartphone) in the whole series. In the meantime, we can still hope it’s the Rolex that will combine both the beauty AND the features.

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.
