We’ve already told you all we’ve heard about Huawei’s Ascend W1. It will be the Chinese company’s first Windows Phone device with specs that include a 4-inch WVGA screen, dual cameras (5MP on the back, VGA front-facing one), 1.2GHz dual-core processor, 512MB of RAM, 4GB of built-in storage and a memory card slot. In a nutshell, we’re talking about a mid-range smartphone that offers quite a bang for the buck — $310 for an unlocked with such specs sounds like a good deal to us.
When it comes to the launch date, we thought Huawei will bring the W1 to market by the end of this year. That, however, won’t be the case with the new story suggesting we’ll have to wait for next year’s CES. At that time we also hope to see other devices made by the Chinese company unveiled, some of which are pretty impressive (as we said in an earlier post). We’ll let you know when we hear something new on this…

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.
