Guess this was expected following the unveiling of the BlackBerry Partners Fund. Research In Motion (RIM) announced plans to launch an annual developer conference to “provide commercial and corporate developers from around the world with opportunities to advance their skills and knowledge in building powerful, world-class applications on the market-leading BlackBerry platform.”
The first BlackBerry Developer Conference is planned for the week of October 20, 2008 in Santa Clara, California, and will feature keynote presentations by thought leaders and innovators in mobile technologies, general sessions, round-table discussions, hands-on workshops, networking opportunities and exhibits.
Topics planned for this year’s conference include:
- Building Powerful Enterprise Applications on the BlackBerry Platform
- Creating Captivating Applications & Services for Consumers
- Latest Development Tools
- Rich Internet Application Development
- Integrating Location-Based Services
For updates and more information about the new BlackBerry Developer Conference, including upcoming details on how to register, a new site has been set up. Here’s the link.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
