AndroidDevCamp I - Dallas

About

In the spirit of iPhoneDevCamp, AndroidDevCamp seeks to capitalize on the release of the first mobile phone running Google's open source operating system, Android.  The power of Android isn't grounded in a particular carrier or handset maker, instead the power of Android comes from you - the developer.  The promise of Android is great, with backers including Google, HTC, Intel, Motorola, Qualcomm, Samsung, LG, T-Mobile, Nvidia and Wind River System (all members of the Open Handset Alliance). 

Come by a part of the future of mobile phones and build applications based on a set of open standards for ALL mobile devices.  Dallas is home to not just one Android Challenge Winner, but TWO!  Rylan Barnes, the original developer of GoCart (now ShopSavvy) will be demonstrating his application and sharing his year long odessy of development on the Android platform. Jason Hudgins, part of the team that developed TuneWiki, will also be demonstrating his application and sharing his experiences with Android as well.
