Apple II classic, The Oregon Trail, is set to hit the AppStore. So far, we’ve seen the popular game being released for the JavaME-enabled mobile phones and now Gameloft is planning to bring the legendary title to the iPhone, as well.
The story line remains the same and sees you following the trials and tribulations of the pioneer’s life on the wagon as they make the journey from Independence, Missouri, to Willamette Valley in Oregon in 1848. I’ll stop here – you can get more information about the game from a dedicated Wikipedia entry.
Now the bad news. Apparently this will be an U.S. title only. Europeans will not get to play it, at least for now. Hopefully that will change and as soon as The Oregon Trail hits the American AppStore, Europeans will get to try it out within weeks…

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.
