Free Tablet PC Developers Tour

My brother isn't exactly a developer--although he can muddle his way through SQL queries, php, and html--so I was a bit surprised when he decided to attend the Los Angeles Tablet PC Developers Tour event.

It's interesting. Even now a couple days after the event he's still jazzed about Tablet development and has been IMing me with questions and ideas. Uh oh, there goes my productivity this weekend :-)

Microsoft ISV Manager Frank Gocinski gave the presentation. I don't know who else is presenting at the events, but Layne says it was well worth it. Actually, his words were a bit stronger. He says he "Loved it. Well worth the time." Here's a bit more on what he thought of the presentation.

There are a bunch more Tablet Developer events coming up in the US and internationally. Check here if you're interested. I count 23 more events from today. Best of all it's free. Oh, and Layne says at the Los Angeles event they gave away an Acer C300. I don't know if this will be the case at the other venues, but it's worth checking out.
