One must wonder about the handset makers’ margins… When we see how low the price can go in China we’re kinda angry. Sure enough, each of the major handset makers has huge marketing costs that gotta count for something, but still…
On that note, we present you with the Neo N003, a new China-only phone that will be available in either April or May. It’s a powerful device that comes with a quad-core processor (MediaTek MT6589), 5.3-inch 720p HD screen, pretty big 3,000mAh battery and 13-megapixel camera; and the price tag of just $160. Yup, that’s the price of an unlocked phone — no contracts to sign, no long-term commitments. Nada.
We wish to see this bad boy hitting at least online stores in the West just to show big boys that we aren’t fools… or are we? We’ll keep paying premium major brands require despite the fact that some of them (I’m not gonna name names here) fail to release timely firmware updates…

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.
