Here’s a neat iPhone app for comic book fans. It’s simply called Comic Shop Locator and it allows users to, guess, find local comic book stores in their area. You can search either by entering a zip code or postal address, or rely on iPhone’s location capabilities (i.e. cellular triangulation and GPS) to get a list of nearby stores.
Comic Shop Locator is a free app and could certainly save you some time when travelling and going for the “coming book hunt.” The data used is from Diamond Comic Distributors and Comic Shop Locator Service website… Here’s a link to the AppStore.

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.
