Free BlackBerry Developer Virtual Conference

Today in my inbox, I received information about a free, one-day virtual developer conference by Research in Motion (RIM), the BlackBerry company. It’s happening on December 3, 2008, and for any mobile developer or wanna-be mobile developer, it sounds like it’s not to be missed.

According to RIM, whether you are an administrator, emerging developer or seasoned pro, this virtual conference has something to offer. All tracks includes seminars, a keynote speech, and on-demand presentations from the virtual exhibit hall. There will also be product experts on hand to answer questions. Here’s some information from the brochure:
