Just got back from the Wireless Technology Forum meeting and thought I’d mention the pleathera of opportunities to meet like minded mobile folks.

http://www.wirelesstechnologyforum.org “Mobile Devices beyond their Original Markets: BlackBerry in the consumer space and iPhone in Enterprise” Hody Crouch, Product Strategy Manager, Oracle.  Hody put on a great presentation and ensuing discussion about how Blackberry is approaching the consumer market and how iPhone is approaching the enterprise market.  Both see opportunities in each other’s pies.  See http://www.iphonecto.com for more on the iPhone angle.

Tuesday night was the iPhone developer meeting.  http://atliphonedev.com/ Where there was a discussion of the iPhone OS 3.0 features coming out and what developers are doing to address and incorporate them.

Last friday,  Amro put his sweat and tears into the first http://www.mobicamp.me/.  There was a great turnout and participants presented and garnered discussion.  The best part in my opinion was the discussion of people experience with getting iPhone apps through the approval process.  Dan Greenfield put together a little writeup over on his blog Bernaise Source and mentioned me.  Thanks Dan!

OK, so that’s all in the past, what’s coming next?  Ed Pimentel is organizing Mobile Monday An industry-focused Community meet-up to share ideas, best practices MobileMonday Atlantan trends.  Visit http://www.mobilemonday.ws for more details and to sign up.

So if you live in the Atlanta metro area and are doing mobile development work, you have absolutely no excuse not to get out and mingle with your fellow mobile developers.
