COSMIN VASILE
Cosmin leads Softpedia's "mobile division" since 2005 by reporting on the latest handset launches and rumors as well as interesting events in the mobile world. He also contributes to our extensive phone and handheld database. He enjoys writing articles and reviews about what's fresh on the handset market, being able to offer readers answers to important questions like: "Is it worth buying this phone?", or "What's with this new handset? Can it fly?".
His hobbies include fantasy literature, Dungeons & Dragons RPG and Miniatures (the geek still lives after all these years) and lots and lots of other board and trading card games. His 750+ D&D miniatures collection is pretty impressive.
Personal motto: I don't have a real life motto, but when I play D&D RPG I always have this in mind: "Have one person in the world you can trust...and never turn your back on him."
