REDFLY Smartphone Dock
The folks behind the REDFLY Smartphone Terminals, Celio, used this year’s CES to unveil two new products – REDFLY PC Software and REDFLY Smartphone Dock.
The first of the two functions like a software version of today’s REDFLY Smartphone Terminal to give a Windows XP/Vista-powered laptop or netbook an expanded resolution (up to 1024×728 pixels), full-screen view of a smartphone for a virtual dual-boot experience. The REDFLY PC Software launch is planned for March 2009.
As for the other product, REDFLY Smartphone Dock, it’s a table-top adapter with VGA, mouse, and keyboard ports for smartphone applications. In other words, it allows you to connect a Windows Mobile-powered device and from there other peripherals, and use a smartphone like it’s a computer, which is extremely cool. 
Celio designed the REDFLY Smartphone Dock with projectors, office kiosks, and commercial applications in mind. Availability and pricing of the device is still unknown — it will be announced in the future.

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.
