Windows Mobile & Mobility solutions has a strong list of sessions at TechEd 2008 Australia, we wanted to address the question of

"I want to get across as much of Mobility & Windows Mobile as I can this year, what are the sessions I should attend, and how do they fit together?"

 

Once you have registered for TechEd 2008, you will be able to plan your schedule via the Session Builder tool. If you select "Mobility" from the "Track" options you will be presented the list of sessions - but to help you out in advance, here they are with some comment on how they all fit. We will throw up another post covering the Hands-on-Labs that will be available, and together these will be your "Windows Mobile guide to TechEd 2008".
