iPhone First Prize
Joris Kluivers, Jelle Prins, and Gijsbert Koren (collectively, Moop.me) won first prize with Laser Chess, a turn-based multiplayer iPhone game where users attempt to destroy their opponents using mirrors and avoid obstacles. They received a Just Mobile Xtand iPhone stand.

We had a wonderful lunch sponsored by iTypeFastr today. iTypeFastr is a replacement for the default iPhone keyboard for jailbroken iPhones where the sizes of keys vary based upon common use frequency, all in order to make sure you type faster. Stefan from iTypeFastr is collecting names for their beta test, so if you didn’t put your name and email address down today at lunch, make sure you write it down tomorrow or leave it here on the blog.
If you’re not here yet, we hope to see you soon!
There’s only a few days until Mobile Dev Camp! If you haven’t joined the 80 other people who already signed up, I hope the updated schedule will convince you. We’ve got a jam-packed schedule full of workshops and times for coding, so there’s no reason not to come!
Unfortunately the popularity of the Dev Camp means that I’m scrambling to sort out refreshments. Does a cost of maybe €15 or €20 for lunch each day and beers in the evenings sound reasonable? If I can get a few volunteers to help me get supplies, I think we can sort it all out. Can you help? As always, you can reach me at peter@mobiledevcamp.nl.
Hi all, I’m afraid we’ve had some issues with the job board recently, including difficulties posting and replying to jobs. I hope they’ve all been fixed, and you can now use some basic HTML in your postings (anchor and image tags, plus some text formatting). Please email me at peter@mobiledevcamp.nl if you are still having problems.
Here’s an interview Viktoria from Tiburon TV did with me about Mobile Dev Camp a few weeks ago at an Amazon Web Services event. Enjoy!
You may have noticed that the latest hot thing in the mobile space, Android, has been missing from our list of workshops. Thankfully, that is no longer true: Diego Torres Milano is coming all the way from Malta to tell us about Android application development. Not to be missed!
Hi all, thank you for the enthusiastic response to the Dev Camp! We already have 30+ people signed up for the first day of workshops without even knowing what is in store. I can now shed some light on the program. Just to give you some quick examples, Joris Kluivers will walk through people through their first iPhone apps while Arjen Broeze will write a MobilePython live on his Nokia E90. Check out the Workshops page for more information. As you can see, we don’t have anyone scheduled to talk about Android yet, so if you can help fix that travesty, please email me at peter@mobiledevcamp.nl!
After lots of behind-the-scenes work, I’m proud to announce Mobile Dev Camp! Mobile Dev Camp is a two day event devoted to developing mobile applications for the iPhone, Android and Symbian platforms. The first day consists workshops, while the second day is devoted to building applications in the Hackathon. There will be prizes for the best applications at the end. Everything you need to know about the Dev Camp on November 29 and 30 can be found in the FAQ. You can sign up for Saturday and Sunday on Upcoming.
