Windows phone @ TechEd Australia : The session overview
TechEd is nearly on us again and again Mobility (Windows phone, SCMDM, Security, Development) has a strong list of sessions at TechEd 2009 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 2009, 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 are some with comment on how they all fit.
