If you own a Nokia Lumia smartphone without a solid data plan, you may want to try out Nokia Xpress, the new web browser that makes your mobile web browsing more affordable. The software does its magic by taking advantage of data compression techniques to cut down on bandwidth usage by up to 90%. As a result, your monthly phone bill can be significantly reduced.
Aside from basic web browser, Nokia Xpress also offers magazine-style RSS news reader which can be easily started on web pages containing RSS feeds (i.e. blogs and other news sites).
In addition, there are other features like the fancy bookmarks called Quick Links, ability to save pages for offline reading, and download (or upload) images and video clips to a SkyDrive account for future access.
You can get Nokia Xpress from the Marketplace but before doing so check out the short demo video below.

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.
