Spotlight Presentation
|
Mystery No More It will still lead up to our biggest giveaway so far. Bill Ryan will present not just about the Compact Framework. It is also about SQL Mobile, and about Service Oriented Architecture and the Compact Framework.
While mobile apps are still in their infancy, this is an exploding
market. Sybase, the old database powerhouse, is attributing their
latest earnings jump to mobile applications. And those devices
are sneaking up on us, and will take over our daily lives before we can
say "can you hear me now".
