Off for a beer with the Mobitopians now...
Posted to Apropos of nothing by Simon Brunning at April 29, 2003 05:29 PMAnd how were the Mobitopians?
Posted by: Eloon on April 30, 2003 09:10 AMMissing. At least, *I* didn't spot them, and a bunch of nerds fresh from a conference are usually pretty hard to miss.
I probably just gave up too soon...

Sorry about that, but the combined effects of getting out of the Expo at least an hour and a half later than expected, Monument and Bank stations being closed and Pizza Express being Pizza Slo-mo, meant we were about 25 mins late. There were a small bunch of Symbian guys at the pub on time, but we weren't, and for that I can only apologise.
You missed some rantings about blogging, much waving of Bluetooth phones, and a tired (but not quite emotional) journo from the Inquirer stumbling across us by pure chance.
Next time we'll try to be semi-organised and give people who said they'd come a far way better way to find us, hell we could even give out a mobile phone number...
One chap did find us by wandering around with a Bluetooth phone looking for other devices. He'd forgotten which pub to go to, I have no idea how many he tried before he found us!
