Listen for iPhone

Erica Sadun has developed a neat app for iPhone called Listen, which allows Apple handset users to identify a song from the radio or any other source. The application, still “very beta”, is available as a free download from here, and all it requires is that your iPhone is jailbroken, so you could install 3rd party apps on it.

Finally, before you say “Wow”, let me remind you that TrackID exists on Sony Ericsson phones for some time and from just recently the same functionality is available for Nokia S60 smartphones as well… ;)

Dusan Belic

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.
