- In person, Sue Loh sounds exactly like you'd imagine from reading the CE blog.
- In person, Doug Boling sounds exactly like you'd imagine from reading his book (except his humor comes off better in person).
- Windows Mobile 6 isn't as big a deal as it first seemed (unless you happen to be a managed code developer, which I'm not).
- The Tao is worth seeing (if you can either get in on your own coolness, or else persuade a multi-billion-dollar company to slip the owner some cash).
- You never know which of your mild-mannered colleagues will turn out to be a raving, iPod-dancing, Viva-Las-Vegas-singing Elvis fan.
- Managed code (C#) actually runs on "real" embedded devices that are too small for even CE.
- No matter how awesome your hotel looks, you still need to provide running water to your guests, or they get cranky.
- When attending a conference, make sure you introduce yourself and describe your company to as many people as you can: you never know which one will suggest a very cool opportunity a few days later.
- Windows Smartphones are now outselling Blackberry devices, and 90% of them are being sold to consumers rather than businesses.
- Despite pushing most of the cool new features onto Windows Mobile first, Microsoft still isn't abandoning CE devices just yet. Thanks for that.
