It is important to remember that the event is still far more Java EE, and Java SE event, than event for mobile developers. Don't get me wrong, there is a great selection of mobile sessions on the mobility track and the presentations have been generally good. However the masses are attending other presentations. The long queues have been to the Web 2.0 and AJAX sessions like last year.</p> <p>&#160;</p> <p>Similarly the expo bookstore is carrying only a few mobile Java related books, but tens of different books dedicated to server and desktop Java issues. However the expo floor seems to have a little more mobility related stands (although I still have not found time to walk around the show floor to visit other booths...).</p> <p>And if I am not mistaken the audience numbers in mobility related technical sessions&#160;are a little higher than last year (or then I just remember wrong...)</p> <p>&#160;</p> <p>At the Nokia booth I have had a number of discussions with people asking general Java ME related questions. Like last year many of the questions are from people who are not yet mobile developers, but are interested in moving over. However only a few people have been interested on the APDU stand, which I have been manning, but instead they have been flocking to see the device showcase and the OSGi demo on N800 Internet Tablet. I guess our APDU demo is not flashy enough.&#160;</p> Event Location Based Services 2007-05-10T08:41:38Z hartti
