Sony Ericsson is bringing the so called PlayNow Kiosks to its retail stores to Pacific Asia. Apparently, visitors to more than 80 company’s stores in Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore can use these kiosks to download some free mobile content — including movies, games, music and ringtones — to their Sony Ericsson handsets.
The move is obviously designed to spread the word about Swedish-Japanese handset maker’s brand among the citizens of the mentioned three countries. In addition, PlayNow Kiosks could entice more people to visit Sony Ericsson’s stores and potentially increase the sales of handsets and accessories.
I wonder will they [Sony Ericsson] also bring PlayNow Kiosks to other parts of the world, as well. We’ll keep our eyes wide open and inform you as soon as we find out something more…

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.
