S60 Open to new features

Wow, what an amazing night in Chicago! Many many thanks to everyone who came out to the event, and special thanks to those who flew in just for the event - I met a few people from Toronto, Dallas, North Carolina. Amazing! Check out photos from the night at the Flickr groups s60online and s60chicago. If you haven't already uploaded your photos to these groups, please do!!

First off, you people are awesome. I had so many great conversations with so many great individuals Thursday night, I never wanted the evening to end. I just can't thank you enough for your continued support for S60.

Bridget Gibbs and her crew at the Nokia Flagship Store were just phenomenal - so helpful, so friendly, so energetic, so passionate about what they do. And big thanks to all the other Nokia crew we had there: Eric from Multimedia, Dean Andrews from Enterprise Solutions, Ganesh Sivaraman from the Browser team, Heidi from the S60 demo team, Lassi Maksimainen from Technology Platforms, and Jouni Juntunen from S60 Marketing. And of course it was a pleasure as always working with fellow host of the event, Dan Shugrue, head of S60 North American Marketing.

It was my first time in Chicago and I had a ball, I'm still kicking myself for not staying longer. Chicago has that same New York City vibe that I love, except the people are super friendly and everything isn't as crammed. I need to get there soon! And after Thursday night's huge success, I know we'll be bringing An Evening with S60 back to that store sometime in the near future.

I'm gonna wait for some other bloggers to write about the event, then I'll have a more detailed analysis of the entire night on here tomorrow.
