We’ve already talked about Nokia’s plans to partner with Zeemote in Germany. Now we see the first fruits of the joint plan, as the recently announced Nokia N85 will be sold bundled with Zeemote’s thumbstick controller – JS1. Under the deal, aside from including the controller in the box, the N85 will also come with 15 Zeemote-friendly demo games pre-installed.
As a side note, during this year’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona I spent some time playing with the Zeemote JS1 and I must say I love it. Some helicopter flying shooter game was demoed and it felt so natural to fly around with Zeemote, rather than using a D-pad.

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.
