One Down, One To Go

Thanks everybody, for being cooler than a roomful of Fonzies!

The first of my speaking engagements at Worldwide Partner Conference went smashingly well yesterday. That was the Windows Mobile keynote in room 372 BCEF talking about Mobility in Small and Medium Sized Businesses.

The room was full, and I don’t remember anyone leaving during the session at all. Despite the fact that my own Awesome Per Minute ratio was through the roof.

Of course, the reason the keynote went so well was totally thanks to the amazingly kickass job that Laura Johnson and Steve Doe did laying out the case for Mobility in small and medium-businesses.

I’m very grateful to have had the opportunity to share Black Warrior Technology’s approach to Mobility and Windows Mobile in particular.

The second of my speaking engagements at Worldwide Partner Conference happens Thursday, July 10th, which is tomorrow, at 1:30p. It’ll be in room 382 ABC, which is the room across from the Green (Mobility) Lounge.

I’ll be speaking about specific examples of Black Warrior Technology’s approach to Mobility and Windows Mobile that have turned into huge wins for both our customers and our company.

Which, like the hokey-pokey, is REALLY what it’s all about!

At Worldwide Partner Conference in July

On the mic at WPC. Prolly a good time to play

It’s officially official.

I’ll be part of two sessions at Microsoft’s Worldwide Partner Conference in Houston next month!

In a stunning development that should shock no one…

Both of them have to do with mobility solutions AKA Windows Mobile.

Here are the official session codes and titles. I’ve even included links to a pair of .vcs files so you can lay the appointments in your Outlook calendar if you want.

If you’re planning on attending WPC, be sure and stop by. There’s gonna be a whole of lot of reasons, ways, and means you can use Windows Mobile to grow your practice.

No, I Don’t Have A Crystal Ball

But maybe I can tell the future. [EDIT: But I completely forget the link. Doh!]

I see a van. It's pulling to your house. All your stuff is being repossessed. You're bankrupt

Been preaching the mobile device revolution was the next big thing for a couple of years now. And decent web browsing would be the key.

Honestly, there’s no magic. You can see what’s coming, as long as you are paying attention.

If you don’t, I can for sure tell you your future.

And it ain’t pretty.
