Joakim from Mobispine informed me that their company has acquired Fun Text and its parent company Image Semantics, with the idea to deliver messaging solutions to operators.
Fun Text is a consumer service that connects content with communication and enables users to send professionally created multimedia to express their emotions. The combined vision is to deliver next generation mobile messaging services on a global scale.
The two companies already support major operators such as Vodafone, Orange, Telefonica, Sprint, T-Mobile and O2. In addition, Mobispine has recently expanded into Brazil and has also won contracts with Russian and Indian mobile operators.
For the record, Fun Text is the fourth acquisition by Mobispine in a little over 12 months as the company becomes a new force in mobile messaging.

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.
