Who says Chinese handset manufacturers can’t make a durable, high-quality phone? The latest CK800 handset from China proved the opposite. As a matter of fact, this indestructible and fairly ugly baby — I guess it’s quite hard to pair the looks with durability — seems created to compete head to head with Sonim XP1 which we’ve already covered before.
Just like the “world’s toughest phone,” the CK800 can take falls and work under water. And even though I’m still not convinced it can really sustain all the things Sonim’s device can, it’s certainly a viable option — especially when you know it will cost less. Plus, let’s not forget the Chinese phone can be charged with a portable AA-battery charger. Neat, don’t you think?

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.
