Opera Software said the Opera Mobile 9.5 will be delayed for two days. Instead of releasing Opera Mobile 9.5 Beta for Windows Mobile on July 15th, the Norway-based software developer will release it on July 17th. That’s not much, even though I know many people who eagerly wait to give the new Opera Mobile a try. Here’s what they say at the blog:
As you can imagine, we encountered a few bugs last week that we needed to fix before we launch. Our engineering team worked through the weekend to fix the bugs. Even though our release is a beta, we’d rather spend the extra time to fix them, thus giving you a better experience. The fixes are almost complete now, but we need two more days to run the build through our quality assurance testing. The new launch date is now set for the 17th.
I’m cool with that – it’s better to wait for two more days and get a better product initially!

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.
