Every 6 months Orange run a developer event which is a mixture of technical sessions, networking and fun. Rafe reports back from the most recent event at Opio, France.
Of course we’ve talked already about Symbian and what it’s partners will (hopefully) be doing, so let me take you on a flying run around the floor to see what catches my eye and what deserves a bit more exploring once we all get to the ExCeL Centre.
One of the more popular applications on both the online stores and bundled with the device is Quickoffice. Craig Senick has been with the product for many years, and All About Symbian sat down with him to find out more about the Office Suite.
There’s a huge change in Symbian OS with OS 9.1 coming out. While the directors and marketing managers will be prowling the floor of The Smartphone Show for the latest edge available to them, the people who do all the work, the programmers, will all have the chance to learn about the new OS, API calls and the low level magic they can use from the people who programmed it. Symbian themselves.
What can we expect from Symbianand its licencees at the upcoming Smartphone Show 2005? Ewan (with input from the rest of the team) takes a look and makes some guesses, and a few warnings.
