Cosmin VasileSoftpedia editor profile and review archive

I'm a part of Softpedia's "mobile division" since 2005 by reporting on the latest handset launches and rumors as well as interesting events in the mobile world. I also contribute to our extensive phones and handheld devices database.

My hobbies include fantasy literature, Dungeons & Dragons and Miniatures, Magic the Gathering and lots and lots of RPG games. I don’t have a basement yet, but my 750+ D&D miniatures collection watches me from every corner of my living room.
