I’m not sure what to think about the Peek. On one hand, it’s hard to justify the purchase of a pure email device in the era of convergence. On the other hand, I’m sure there are some (if not many) people who find modern smartphones too complicated and/or too expensive. The Peek could also be interesting for those users who buy low-end phones and a device like Peek could certainly help them stay in the loop while on the go.
Anyway, Peek will see its debut in Target on September 14th. The full QWERTY keyboard equipped device will cost $100 and will also require a $15-a-month T-Mobile contract, which includes unlimited email…
I’m eager to hear your thoughts on Peek. Will it fly or vanish within months – what do 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.
