ACCESS, the company which you may know as the Palm OS (Garnet) code owner, introduced its NetFront for Android. However, it’s not just a browser they are bringing to the platform — they are also unveiling a set of tools for operators and device manufacturers using which these parties will be able to deliver customized user experiences and pre-install additional apps for the end users. In other words, it’s a complete suite of NetFront technologies that also (in addition to the web browser) includes NetFront FlexUI, NetFront Widgets and NetFront Document Viewer — all of which are on display at the Mobile World Congress. Moreover, ACCESS said it plans to develop NetFront Living Connect and NetFront Book Viewer EPUB Edition for Android and to make all of its NetFront apps available for download for end users… We’ll see how that goes and whether some carrier of handset makers dives in.

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.
