Pune User Group

It was great fun driving down to Pune for the launch of the Pune User Group meeting.
The first time we were having a physical meeting besides just meeting online.
It took me only 2 hours to get to Pune from Mumbai and then strangely a good 45 minutes just navigating the Pune city traffic :-(

Well there were a bunch of 25 Puneites waiting to get the session kicked off...
I dived right into a session on the SmartPhone 2003, it's kind of my favorite device as of now.
Really cool features...

I showcased the key features of the phone and then started off with discussing how one can develop using VS.Net for the SmartPhone 2003. Calling a web service, creating menu's, using ActiveSynch, then setting up Remote Display to project the phone's screen onto my projection system...

The audience was excited I could feel it revebrating through the room...
New technology thats what keeps us on a high...

SMARTPHONE Rocks!!!

TechEd Blues...

The last TechEd event was in Mumbai...
Kind of felt nostalgic about it...
But look forward to many more such days.
As usual it was great fun... Raj, Sanjay Vyas the rest of the guys...
The evening ended with a party basically to felicitate the speakers and the rest of the crew who had made it a great event...
