Over at 3GSM, Bridgeport, Oberthur, and CounterPath have announced the commercial availability of MobileSTICK.  MobileSTICK is a USB device that plugs into a PC or laptop with a fixed line or Wi-Fi broadband connection and launches a PC softphone, secured by a SIM card that utilizes the user’s existing mobile phone number to make and receive phone calls, SMS messages and multimedia (MMS) messages. 

Now all the content you’ve got on your PC can be easily sent via MMS using a PC drag and drop interface.  Drag a photo to the softphone, and send it via MMS using MobileSTICK. 

It’s a pretty neat take on the whole fixed-mobile convergence space.
