For the last two months, we've been meeting at Carolina Ale House in Briar Creek. The change of venue has been a lot of fun. Panera food and Wifi is OK, but the vibe at CAH makes for more one-on-one and smaller breakout sessions. It's truly a user-helping-user group.
Tonight, we had quite a cross section of the industry. A new person came, who is an iPhone developer, but there were only two other iPhone/Touch users! The rest were Windows Mobile, Palm Pre, and Symbian. Later, a couple of CrackBerry addicts wandered in as well. There was a Kindle DX, we looked at Presto, a Linux quick-boot install. Alan showed how you can actually shell into a teathered Pre from the Mac terminal. We showed Mark/Space's Fliq and QuickOffice for the iPhone as well.
Pat mentioned that, since May will start our tenth year, we should think about a celebration of some kind. We'll have to discuss what kind of geekery we can get up to in the next few months. It's sure been a lot of fun!
If you've not been to a meeting in a while, you need to check out the new venue - with Monday Night football starting up, though, we may have to give it a pass. We'll see in September. See you then!
