If you’re heading out to DevConnections in Las Vegas, be sure to check out Mobile Connections, the section of the conference devoted to all things Mobile: from SmartPhones to Mobile PCs.
The sessions look amazing, including this Silverlight-themed gem:
MPC303: Annotation and Drawing with Ink in Silverlight
Julia Lerman
TabletPC development for Web sites just got a whole lot easier and more flexible with Silverlight. This session will show how to use Silverlight’s InkPresenter control to let users annotate photos, videos, and blogs to create highly interactive and fun Web sites. The session will also explore methods of saving annotations, replaying them on demand, and synchronizing them with video. Javascript and .NET functionality will both be covered in this session. Unlike the ActiveX control solutions of the past, Silverlight’s flexibility also means that non-Tablet users (even Macs) can interact with these solutions although they will not get the high resolution and other advantages that only a digitizer and stylus allow.
The sessions I’ll be presenting are:
MPC304: Adding Location-Awareness to Mobile PC Applications with MapPoint and Virtual Earth
Frank LaVigne
Mobile PCs are, by definition, on the move and with the addition of Location Awareness you can add significant value to your application. Whether leveraging GPS or IP-based location tracking, find out how you can quickly pinpoint your location and offer location-specific services, directions, and more using MapPoint and Virtual Earth.MPC307: Developing for the Tablet PC as a Smart Client Platform
Frank LaVigne
Learn all about the basics for building Smart Client applications that leverage the portability and power of the Tablet PC platform. In this session, Frank La Vigne introduces developers to the hardware, software, and development options available to building out Smart Client solutions on the Tablet PC. Adding Ink functionality can dramatically add value to existing applications without adding significant amounts of code; see just how easy it can be to take an existing application and add support for Digital Ink, handwriting recognition, and document recognition.MPC302: Practical Ink Analysis in Mobile PC Applications
Frank LaVigne
The new InkAnalysis API not only provides for the conversion of Digital Ink to text, but also the conversion of entire document structures and shape recogntion. The science behind this is hard, but the API has been designed to be easy to use. In this presentation, Frank La Vigne will run through three sample applications built on top of the InkAnalyzer API that will demonstrate real world usefulness.
Hope to see you in LV

A couple of days ago I blogged about Ceedo, and admittedly I didn’t really get it, even said so in the post. I get it now (Thanks Dror) and it’s brilliant, I can’t wait to try this out. Here’s an illustration that demonstrates the model.
What you’re seeing in step 2 is the user having […]

I once read that a true sign of greatness is facing the cold hard facts of life and admitting a mistake when one has been made. I truly hope this bit of speculation, that Sony Ericsson may be adopting Windows Mobile as a replacement for their Symbian UIQ, is more than just speculation. I am not a fan of Symbian UIQ having made use of both the Sony Ericsson M600i and P900i. I hear that the new Sony Ericsson P1 is pretty good, but I image that I'd still prefer a smartphone of any other major type. I literally get my hands on everything and I dare say I prefer the iPhone, Nokia S60 3rd Edition, Blackberry, Windows Mobile and Motorola Linux smartphone platforms (in that order) to Sony Ericsson's Symbian UIQ. I've found UIQ slow, cumbersome, and not widely supported. Good call Sony Ericsson, ditch UIQ, give Windows Mobile a try, and keep on making the feature phones you produce so well.

Did anyone look at the mobile companies that demo’d at TechCrunch 40? Ceedo has a really interesting mobile virtualization product that I’m not sure I totally understand. Here’s a quote from Ceedo:
“Imagine plugging in your mobile phone to the USB port of a computer, any computer, and having it greet you by automatically launching […]

I love this operating system. It’s such an improvement over WM5, though i have noticed that they haven’t fixed the scheduling because the UI and general operation (especially on smartphones) is subpar. A good resource to run some WM6 made progams is wm6 software.net.
