You may’ve heard about the Shinkansen, the Japanese ultra-fast, always-on-time bullet trains. Well, now you can own a piece of their glory and carry it with yourself wherever you are. Yap, we’re talking about Shinkansen mobile phone straps, which can be there with you all the time to remind you on that fantastic trip to Japan, you’ve hopefully have had. Best of all, these babies are expandable, meaning you’ll be able to actually have a complete 16-car version right in your (somewhat large) pocket.
Now I’m wondering we’ll French TGV and German ICE follow the suit and release similar straps. That would be neat as well…

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.
