FCC has cleared a new ZTE device. It’s the X990, a low-end QWERTY keyboard-equipped phone, designed for those who like texting but don’t want to pay too much for a phone with full keyboard. In that sense, we’re talking about a non-3G device that also includes Bluetooth connectivity support, 2-megapixel camera, FM radio, web browser, music player, standard 3.5mm headset jack and a microSD memory card slot.
It’s still unclear which carrier will pick up the X990, but I can see it being offered for free on a contract…

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.
