Mongolian operator MobiCom has upgraded its network to HSPA, using the technology and hardware provided by Ericsson. Initially, the new high-speed network services will be offered in the country’s capital Ulaanbaatar, where about 40% of the country’s 3 million population live.
Commenting on the announcement, MobiCom’s CEO, Bolor Dorjnamjil, said: “This launch reflects MobiCom’s continuous commitment to offering its subscribers the latest services and applications. MobiCom was the first operator to introduce mobile services in Mongolia and is now launching the country’s first mobile broadband services. Ericsson’s experience in 2G-3G network deployments and extensive support capacity make it the ideal partner for this project.”

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.
