CeBIT 2009 http://meetmobility.com/2009/03/08/meetmobility-event-cebit-2009/ http://meetmobility.com/2009/03/08/meetmobility-event-cebit-2009/#comments Sun, 08 Mar 2009 11:26:06 +0000 admin http://www.meetmobility.com/?p=47 meetmobility1First of all, JKK, Sascha and I would like to say thank-you to all the people that made it to the MeetMobility event in Hannover and to Conics and Mobilx for contributing towards it. Thanks also to Runcore for the T-shirts and to everyone else for the demos and discussions. It was a successful evening despite some of the negative discussion around the value of CeBIT for emerging products and markets.

Secondly, a big big sorry to all those that picked up on the meeting in the forums, registered their interest and then got pushed into a waiting list. We underestimated the response from the people we’ve worked with over the past year and ran out of space very quickly. For 2010, we’ve already identified a bigger venue and promise to make sure that we reserve space for the very important members of the mobile computing community.

JKK spent some time taking a few candid video shots which he’ll put together soon but in the meantime, here are a set of images from the evening. Note the very very interesting MiFi pocketable 3G router which was unanimously voted as gadget of the evening. Expect to see this within the next 8 weeks in Europe (Mobilx are working on a resale agreement with Novatell.) For more details, check out the video at JKKMobile

Happy mobile users, deep discussion, the Mifi and a range of devices helped to make the evening focused and enjoyable.

Meetmobility would also like to thank Teltarif.de for their hospitality on Wednesday.

The next MeetMobility event is tentatively planned for Computex, Taiwan.

Apart from a lot of behind-the-scenes Skype and IM sessions to discuss many a  mobile computing topic, we’ve been podcasting and attending shows together.

Rather than scatter our content around under different banners, we decided to create a site that we can use to pull all our joint events together.

We’ve still got a lot of work to do here but over the coming weeks we’ll get the relevant content and links in place.

We start next week at CeBIT where we’ll be doing a lot of work together to get good content out. Expect joint podcasts, news from a MeetMobility event we’ve got planned with industry members and a lot of microblogs! See the sidebars on the site for the latest microblogs and podcasts info.

If you don’t follow our websites, the theme here is mobile computing from the emerging uber-smartphone or midphone market through to some of the lighter and mobile-focused netbooks. As mobile computing and mobile internet reaches the masses, we’ll be covering it.

More news about events, live sessions and podcasts soon. Stay tuned.
