Nokia decided to opt-out from exhibiting at this year’s CES in Las Vegas. The Finnish company will rather focus all its energy on Mobile World Congress, which takes place at the end of February in Barcelona.
From the CES 2013 Exhibitor Directory we learn that the only part of Nokia that will have a booth in Vegas is Navteq, where we presume interested users will be able to learn about mapping services and solutions which are now available across different platforms.
So are we disappointed? Kinda… but then again if they don’t have a new product to announce, perhaps it’s better (it’s definitely cheaper) to wait for another month or so and show the world some rock-solid products instead of boring everyone with existing stuff we’ve all seen before. Hopefully Nokia will make it up to all of us in Barcelona and show us the next-generation of Windows Phone devices. Can’t wait.

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.
