Nokia 5530 XpressMusic is officially approved by the FCC and is ready for the U.S. market. Lack of 3G means that the device is ready to sing along AT&T’s network, relying solely on WiFi for decent Internet speeds. Touch-friendly S60 5th edition sits on top of Symbian OS, making sure you can easily (or not that easily) find your way around numerous functions the 5530 XM has to offer. A number of 3rd party apps is available through Ovi Store, allowing for further expansion of the handset’s feature set…
Anyway, now that the FCC has cleared the device for sale in the U.S., we only have to wait for Nokia to bring this baby to its flagship stores in New York City and Chicago. Alternatively, they may secure a deal with AT&T to eventually spur the sales. We’ll see how that goes…

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.
