Nervous exhaustion, shmervous exhaustion. Here’s the year’s busiest week of mobile news.
Mobile World Congress has come and gone, in case you haven’t noticed our live-from-Barcelona coverage, and it’s time to rein it all in and figure out what actually happened. There’s a ton of new devices that were on display from most major manufacturers (sorry, RIM and Motorola), and too many solutions providers to keep track of. We have the prolific Dusan Belic joining us this episode, which is a rare treat indeed – before MWC, we’ve never been in the same time zone, let alone room! If you’re wondering where the podcast was last week, I was in New York covering a little RIM to-do, and stuck around for the CrackBerry podcast with RIM VP of Developer Relations, Mike Kirkup – feel free to take a listen if you’re into the BlackBerry stuff.
Our Mobile World Congress Edition of The Signal Podcast is behind the jump – check it out!
