Commenting on the announcement, which BTW was made during the CTIA in Las Vegas, Symbian’s Executive Director, Lee M. Williams, said: “We’re excited to be working with our members and community friends on the public launch of our beta site – their feedback is extremely important in helping us evolve and develop our offering. With partners already contributing projects to the platform, members continuously showing their support, and the launch of our new beta site, we’re really excited about the next steps.”
Hear that? They want your feedback. If you’re a developer, please don’t hesitate to contribute as much as you can to make the Symbian platform better with the day. In the meantime, we’ll keep our eyes open for all the news that come from the Nokia-led initiative. Stay tuned…

Dusan Belic
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.
