This is a summary of the extended article published over at MeeGoNews.com following my attendance there last week.
In summary, we might as well call the MeeGo Conference an event for the core members, developers and vendors and not a showcase event. While reporters may have walked away very disappointed, attendance was high and there were great opportunities for partners to do business.
Highlighting a growth in the IVI (In Vehicle Infotainment) sector, Nissan were on stage to talk about their work with MeeGo and why they chose open source. ‘Time to Market’ was a theme repeated by other partners too.
The Intel presence in terms of partners and demos was stronger than in Dublin last November which could indicate lower interest from ARM partners. Nokia representatives were around though and rumours of an N950 grew stronger during the conference.
In terms of hardware we had a quick session with an Oaktrail tablet running Meego and the AppUp client and got some time with a new product from Indamixx which has been built on MeeGo.
You can find detailed information on all this along with videos and a ton of pictures over at MeeGoNews.com
