Reminder: Today at 6pm -- What's Going on in Wireless?

[Matthew Gifford]

REMINDER: Today at 6 pm — Please

RSVP [http://mobileportland.com/events/whats-going-wireless]

We're all experts at using mobile devices. Many of us even know

how to write software for them. But do you know what is going on

"under the covers" in mobile phone technology, at carriers, and

in the standards development world?

Why won't the new iPad work in Australia? Why is international

roaming so difficult? What do developers need to know about

future networks? What interesting technology is on the horizon

that could contribute to new mobile experiences?

Rob Wilcox will give you a systems level view of wireless,

competing wireless standards, and wireless futures, free of the

marketing and jargon which can color the industry. He'll also

propose some long term trends, both social and technical, your

consideration in developing new use cases.

Hi--I'm out of town for about a year and I see programs you run that I'd love to hear but cannot be at. Any chance you could do a conf. call or webinar setup? I would have loved to have heard this one! Thanks.--Audrey
