S60 Review & S60 Summit, Day 2

Wednesday was the S60 Summit, I’m probably the worst person to discuss the day’s events because I was manning a demo the entire day. Some 40 demos were on hand including many from 3rd party developers. Throughout the day attendees could partake in the demos and watch presentations from S60’s leading professionals.

Some of the presentations included “Extensibility and the Winning Ecosystem” from Tero Ojanperä, Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer at Nokia. “Vodafone Terminals and Service Strategy” from Patrick Chomet, Director of Terminals Platform and Service Innovation, Vodafone. “Threat and Opportuniity of IP Convergence” from Anders Wästerlid, Vice Prresident, Products & Devices, O2 plc + Chairman, OMTP. And I’ve heard from serveral people that the event’s best presentation was, “How Consumers Really Use Rich Mobile Devices”, delivered by Esa Eerola, Head of Software Platforms Marketing, Consumers, from Nokia.

The event was amazing, I had great discussions with alot of the industry’s leading innovators. It’s really nice to see so many people from the S60 community all in one place, really looking forward to next year’s event! Oh, and special thanks to those victims volunteers who I interviewed for our new podcast which will debut tomorrow. Be sure to check back tomorrow for all the details!
