Just as we reported Nokia’s “Comes With Music” initiative is heading to Singapore and Australia, we have a new info, suggesting other European countries — except UK which was lucky enough to be the first one to try it out — will get a chance to try out the Finnish giant’s unlimited music downloads scheme, too.
Nokia has announced a pan-European licensing deal with major record labels (Universal, EMI, Sony), as well as the national collecting societies SACEM, SDRM, and SESAM (France), SGAE (Spain), SIAE (Italy), STIM (Sweden), TEOSTO (Finland) and TONO (Norway). As a result, citizens of the countries mentioned above should expect to see few “Come With Music”-enabled phones hitting store shelves until the end of this year. Actually, no dates were given, but considering Nokia had enough time to test all aspects of the offering in the UK, most things seem ready for rolling out the service/product bundle. As soon as we hear something new on this, we’ll let you know, k?

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.
