Now this is weird. The company that specializes in mobile gambling technologies and was also known as a disposable cellphones maker not long ago released a new Windows Mobile smartphone. And while we guess they’ve outsourced the manufacturing to some Chinese or Taiwanese OEM, it’s interesting to note they’ve made sure their new smart baby, called HOP2001, can work on both CDMA and GSM networks. To be fair, we see no EV-DO in the specs, but HSDPA is there, meaning that for the full download speeds, you better have an account with AT&T. In addition, the HOP2001 also packs the large 2.8″ QVGA touchscreen, 3 MP camera with 10x zoom and autofocus, WiFi, stereo Bluetooth 2.0, 256 MB Flash ROM and 128 MB SRAM, built-in GPS receiver, and of course the microSD expansion slot. Quite an impressive specs for the new entrant in the smartphone market. I wonder will some carrier pick it up…

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.
