March 26th event - Developing for Nokia with WP7

This month, we’ve partnered with Nokia for an event that will introduce developers to building for Windows Phone 7 on Nokia devices. We’ve seen the beautiful devices (including its Lumia 900, winner of the Best Smartphone of CES) and some lucky souls have had a chance to play and live with them.

Now we’ll learn how and why to develop for the platform. We’ll also hear plans for the US market and Nokia’s focus on apps and developers, including seeding thousands of devices, and providing access to tools, support and training. Oh, and did we mention Nokia will be giving away FREE DEVICES?!

If you’re an individual or represent a company already building for WP7, let us know. Selected developers will be able present their work to the Mobile Monday community and Nokia.

WHEN: March 26th at 7pm

WHERE: The Canal Room, 285 West Broadway in Manhattan

HOW: Register now - space is limited

Mobile Commerce Event Recap

 

Thanks to everyone who attended our mobile commerce event last Monday. Apologies to most of you - who we had to turn away once all the passes were quickly claimed. 

Our panel represented 4 key segments of the mobile commerce ecosystem. It was moderated by someone who’s been helping drive ecosystem innovation since before most of us started dreaming about the revolution sparked when mobile tech entered the realm of bricks-and-mortar commerce.

Participating in the discussion:

Thanks to our sponsors - Google Wallet, Payfone, Group Commerce, and Blue Point Brewing - for hosting the event and providing the food and drink.
