Cricket is adding another low-end Android smartphone to its portfolio – ZTE-made Cricket Groove. The entry level device is available for $79.99 sans any strings attached, and has specs that include a 3.5-inch HVGA screen, 800MHz processor, 3.2-megapixel rear camera with flash, VGA front-facing camera and a 1,500 mAh battery.

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.
