Ok, we get it. Every media outlet wants to have its own iPhone app. Latest company to join the trend is Arabic TV news station – Al Jazeera. They’ve launched a dedicated application in English, “covering the world, bridging cultures and setting the news agenda.”
To use the app, all you have to do is press the button “Watch live now” at the bottom of the screen, and that’s about it. The streaming video will start with the latest news from The Middle East. They say both 3G and WiFi connection will work, though some people have complained video quality on 3G can’t come close to the one on WiFi. Guess, they haven’t tried it with the faster iPhone 3GS. 
Anyway, Al Jazeera English app costs 3 bucks ($2.99) and you can grab it from here. (iTunes link)

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.
