After Russia, Samsung is bringing its Android-powered i5700 Galaxy Spica to Europe. The 800 MHz CPU-equipped device will certainly help Google’s OS run faster, while also ensuring the smooth DivX video playback.
Rest of the specs include HSDPA support, 3.2-inch HVGA capacitive touchscreen, 3-megapixel camera with auto-focus, GPS, digital compass, WiFi, microSD card slot, 1500mAh battery and so on. Software wise, the smartphone comes pre-loaded with bunch of Google apps such as Google Maps, GMail and YouTube; whereas Android 1.5 Cupcake is running the show (hopefully it will be upgradable to Android 2.0 Eclair).
Pricing information was not provided, but we’ve heard the Spica is now (or will be in the near future) available across Europe and the CIS nations…

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.
