Popular accessory maker Belkin announced a multi-year licensing partnership with The LEGO Group to create fun accessories for mobile devices.
Starting in spring 2013, the company will launch a variety of smartphone cases incorporating LEGO bricks for a unique “buildable” case experience. The upcoming cases are promised to fit LEGO fans of all ages, and the initial product line will focus on iOS devices, including the iPhone and iPod touch. Going forward, the plan is to expand to other platforms over the course of the partnership.
According to Belkin’s Patrick Sullivan, the partnership with LEGO opens up a whole new audience for Belkin. He’s also “extremely excited” to work together on a line of cases based on iconic LEGO toys that will inspire creativity and promote individuality in people of all ages.

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.
