DevDays 2009 – iPhone Developer Workshop
The TravelManager team in Ireland attended “DevDays 2009″ to meet with other iPhone developers as well as Apple Engineers. It was a great opportunity to meet with fellow iPhone developers and we’ve even got a few people interested in developing on the TravelManager API’s!!
Everyone really liked the look of our iPhone App so we thought we’d share it a few pics with you:
***Main Menu in TM App
***Open Quotes in TM App
One developer in particular has created an iPhone App for Dublin Bus timetables so that was really interesting for us to meet someone providing solutions for the same industry. More on that in the next few weeks as we start to finalize on iPhone apps (yes we’re going to have more than 1 App).
The conference highlighted the need to have a few Apps in the iTunes store and also for focus on multilingual offerings as most iPhone users really like to work in the native language (so lucky TravelManager can be language independent them 
)
**We’re thinking about attending WWDC in June as the DevDays 2009 event really highlighted just how huge the iPhone is going to be after the next update in June. Any iPhone developers interested in developing iPhone Apps for TravelManager should join us in attending WWDC before the end of April. (If the interest is high, in even just attending the event in June it makes sense to go as a group??)
I suspect this event is going to be a huge one that could the trip of a lifetime

Hey also forgot to mention great job Anton and his fellow event organizers. Just getting fellow iPhone developers in Ireland into one room was brilliant for networking, GREAT JOB!!
**Who knows we might get a free lunch at next years event after one of us makes our first $1m with our iPhone Apps

Great write up. The iPhone is truly awesome and I don’t like being without it. This time last year I had jumped in a pool with my iPhone and it was dead. I had to wait 9 days before I was able to buya new one. The phone I had was a cheap go phone. I really love all the apps that can be downloaded to the iPhone. The best part about the iPhone to me is the ability to check emails on the fly. Thanks for the information.
