Here’s what we got for you this week:

  • Blackberry 9500 clone – interesting – instead of the BlackBerry key, there’s the Home button. Screen is smaller, too.
  • Mini Nokia N97 ripoff – mobile TV enabled Nokia N97 mini? Nah, there is no such thing. But there should be a QWERTY keyboard which this clone lacks.
  • Nokia Batman mobile phone ripoff – this remote control-shaped device is “designed” for Batman and Nokia lovin’ suckers.
  • Nokia N87 ripoff – there’s no such thing as the Nokia N87. Especially with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. Period.
  • Sony Ericsson Yari ripoff – Yari with an iPhone-like interface. Hmmm, I don’t think so.

Needless to say don’t buy any of these…

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.
