Recently, Ericsson and Napster announced the largest European hosting contract for Napster Mobile with O2 UK.
O2 UK’s customers will be able to search, browse, preview and purchase full-length tracks from Napster’s catalog of over 5 million tracks and, thanks to the dual delivery, play them both on their mobile phones and PCs. In addition, if they’re in the mood to research new music, Napster’s recommendation engine helps users get new tunes based upon their taste.
Under the agreement, Ericsson will do all the work around hosting, include systems integration, operations, maintenance and content management.
Earlier, we saw Ericsson and Napster launching the music service in Chile with Entel PCS and in Italy with TIM.

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.
