O2 UK is among the first British carriers to commit to offer some of the sexy new smartphones announced at CES. In fact, it managed to score at least one exclusive device (for now) – Sony Xperia Z in purple. The operator’s website says that Sony’s high-end smartphone will start selling in February though we still wait for the exact release date.
But that’s not all – O2 will also offer the Huawei Ascend W1, which is the Chinese company’s first-ever Windows Phone device. As you probably know, this baby packs a 4-inch WVGA screen, Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 dual-core processor clocked at 1.2GHz, HSPA, Wi-Fi, GPS, 1950mAh battery, 5-megapixel camera and 4GB of built-in storage that is further expandable with microSD cards. The Ascend W1 will be available later this quarter when users will be able to choose between blue and ruby-pink models.

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.
