THE BOSTON PDA DEVELOPER GROUP IS REBORN OCTOBER 23nd at MIT
On Tuesday October 23nd at 7pm, MIT room 3-133, the Boston PDA Developer’s Group presents a forum open to developers of all PDA platforms.
A few years ago, BOSPDAUG decided to retire the Boston PDA Developer Group meeting, as the Palm platform had stagnated, and there was not a compelling platform to write for. The recent announcement by Apple of the iPhone SDK, to be released in 2008 has set of a flurry of activity inside the inner circle at BOSPDAUG. To wit, as we now have an interesting platform to develop for again, we’ve decided to rebrand the 2nd meeting of each month, held on the 4th Tuesday as “The Boston PDA Developer Group” meeting, with the focus on iPhone development.
To innaugurate the return of the Boston PDA Developer group, Robert Jen will be presenting some Web 2.0 apps for the iPhone/iPod touch that he has recently developed. Robert is looking for good ideas on things to build for this platform as well, so if there’s something you’d like to see on the iPhone or iPod touch, come on in and talk about it.
Additionally, we’re going to take a look at all the news on the release of the iPhone Dev kit, and speculate on exactly what form the development tool chain might take. As the release of the iPhone SDK draws near, BOSPDAUG will be the place to be to keep up with iPhone development.
The Boston PDA Developer’s Group is an organization of professional and non-professional programmers for various PDA platforms including iPhone/iPod touch, Pilot, Danger and Newton. Our resident cabal of developers, responsible for many well known shareware and vertical applications for Pilot, (soon Phone/iPod Touch), Newton and other platforms are a ready knowledge base for your PDA development questions. We meet the fourth Tuesday of each month at MIT in Cambridge MA in MIT room 3-133, and welcome developers of all PDA persuasions.
As always, our resident team of PDA experts can answer almost any question about the care and feeding of nearly any handheld platform, including iPhone, Palm, Danger, Psion, Pocket PC and Newton.
