CTIA WIRELESS 2008®: Over and Out

What a great way to spend a few days!

We certainly wrapped up with a bang on the keynote stage, as former presidential candidate John Edwards made big news. When asked on-stage by CTIA President and CEO Steve Largent whether he would consider being the Democrat party’s vice-presidential nominee, he said…. Well, see it for yourself. Just click on Keynote Q&A on Day Three, and then Vice-Presidential thoughts. You’ll see Senator Edwards is pretty clear on the matter! Edwards and fellow former senator and prez contender Fred Thompson were great with their remarks on presidential politics and what wireless is doing to the process. You’ll definitely want to check out all that they had to say.

In the big picture, CTIA WIRELESS® shows have always been a popular place for major mobile industry announcements, and this show was no exception. This week saw Chairman Martin declare his intention to dismiss the Skype petition and the debut of the cool Sprint – Samsung Instinct.  On the applications and software sides, we had Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 and Yahoo’s One Search 2.0 introduced.

We’ve had great keynotes from some of the most influential player in and around the mobile space.

And we can’t forget about the exhibitors. Some of the most creative and original companies in the world showed off their latest technology.   

We have had a ball this week, and we hope you have, too.
 
See you in 'Frisco in September!!
