<br>Developing for the iPhone: Innovation and Usability<br><br>Many believe that the introduction of the iPhone brought about a fundamental shift in the usability, functional abilities, and expectations of phone and PDA users.<br>

<br>However along with this shift came a new challenge: how to develop for this revolutionary platform?<br><br>Join John Ascroft, Chief Innovation Officer (CIO) of Jade Software Corporation, and Hadley Trounson, a member of Jade&#39;s development team as they take you through the iPhone environment and its focus on user-centric design and market driven innovation.<br>

This will be a thoroughly enthralling presentation and not one to be missed.<br><br>Note: Light lunch provided.
