iPhone Insider Workshop

iPhone Insider Workshop
Development for the iPhone
James Eberhardt (CA)
26, 27, 28 February 09, Lisbon, Portugal

The mobile phone has reached a level of adoption that far exceeds that of the personal computer. As a result, they are an emerging platform for new services and applications that have the potential to change the way we live and communicate.
The iPhone, since its launch, last July has had an incredible adoption curve and is reshaping people’s relationship with their mobile phones and forcing competitors to define themselves against the iPhone. So what is it all about?

This workshop aims to get inside the iPhone and understand its advantages (and disadvantages?) and how to create software for it.

The focus of this workshop will be split between theory and practical.

Attendees will be divided into groups to work on small tutorials to create applications for their iPhone.


Who this workshop is for:

Designers, developers and anybody else who would like to explore using the iPhone in their creative projects. No programming experience is required, but it would be an asset.

It's nice to see the injection of technology into the health care segment. I hope there will be a stage with advanced technology treatments to diseases. I rather prefer in natural ways to weight loss such as following a proper diet with yoga.

Thanks

The workshop sounds great. I would like to know more about the iPhone. Unfortunately I live far away from Portugal. It would be interesting if you had a webcast available.
