RE: Convenient?
But I'm probably not going. Yet another three days of rah-rah and empty promises like we got the last time around? And I'm paying for this? Thank you, no.
RE: Convenient?
Yeah, the presentations can get rah-rah, but will be interesting to see how they play the China MobileSoft acquisition (and what they might have to offer in the lab). Remember, China MobileSoft has a Linux-based product; by virtue of the acquisition PalmSource has diversified and now has a second, incompatible offering (or third if you count Cobalt - I don't as nothing has shipped with it yet...).
And, hey, there's always meeting up with the other developers in the bar...
PalmSource May 2005 DevCon is REALLY a CON...
1) I get a full set of Lite Cubes this time
2) I get a refund for last year's Cobalt Snowjob/Blowjob
3) I get to ask David Nagel some questions at the Stump the Experts session
4) I get to be the guest of the lovely Dianne Hackborn this year, and my wish is her command
5) David Nagel publicly admits that ONE THIRD of the current PalmSource employees will be "downsized" in the coming months

RE: Convenient?
That implies Dave is an expert at something... as someone who briefly worked for him I'm not so sure that's true...!
Hopefully no-one will roll out beach balls this year in a lame attempt to rev up the party... mind you that game with the colored paddles was kinda interesting.

Convenient?
I guess if you live in San Jose or environs it's convenient... it's a 14 hour int'l flight for me... but as always I'll be there. Hopefully they'll have more interesting stuff to announce than last year...
