Final impressions of CTIA 2010

Well, I’m at the airport heading home after CTIA 2010. Herewith are my final thoughts…

Last night was a bit of a bummer, as we were not chosen as finalists for the AT&T developer contest. We had a good application, but the judges told us over drinks at the award ceremony that size of the company does play a big role in the contest. I can’t really fault that logic, as Adobe probably doesn’t need the 10k prize as much as a small 2 person shop might. We’re just thankful for the opportunity to get on AT&T’s radar with our enterprise mobile initiatives and hopefully set the stage for future talks. I must say, however, that AT&T’s awards event at the Venetian was very nice, good wine and great food!

The bulk of the show on Day 2 was much the same as Day 1. I soaked up a whole lot about the industry, but I think for mobile application developers other conferences such as RIM’s may make more sense.

Oh, and I got a picture of Shaun White. I have no idea what a pro snowboarder has to do with Wireless…but Marvell certainly managed to attract attention to themselves!
