Sony Ericsson shares end-user trends at UIQ Developer Fast Track events

[Back]

 

UIQ Technology is organizing two unique events for US developers on May 10-11 and 14-15, 2007. Sony Ericsson is joining UIQ and Symbian OS experts as a speaker at the UIQ Developer Fast Track events to share end-user trends, enabling developers to better understand and take advantage of the market segments associated with Sony Ericsson's P990, M600 and W950 UIQ 3-based phones. Other speaker companies at the event include Motorola, Orange, Handango, M:Metrics, Penrillian, Quickoffice and DataViz.  

UIQ Developer Fast Track in the USA
The UIQ Developer Fast Track events provide mobile application developers with both technical and commercial information. Developers can learn about the compelling business cases to be made targeting UIQ 3 and get a deeper technical knowledge about concepts behind the UIQ architecture. The UIQ Developer Fast Track is held in two US locations:

  • May 10-11, 2007 in Boston, Massachusetts
  • May 14-15, 2007 in San Francisco, California

Both events feature two tracks: technical and commercial. This allows delegates to understand the business case and to get a rounded view of the UIQ software platform. Registration information, including the agenda for both events, can be found here>>

UIQ is key to Sony Ericsson's Open Platform strategy.
