Four bloggers have been selected to travel the country and test Nokia’s newest device, the N97. For two weeks, the group travels to LA, San Fran, Chicago and New York testing the device in real world applications and sharing their honest feedback in real-time via their blogs and other social networks.
Along the journey, they’ll spend a day in each city hosting a Mobile Camp to talk about their interest areas as they relate to technology and convergence. Interest areas include: Content Creation, Content Consumption, Connection and Navigation. We hope that Mobile Camp will bring together a mix of people, who all have a passionate interest in one of these areas.
Here's the agenda for the event:
10:00 – 10:30 Arrive/Breakfast
10:30 – 11:00 Introduction
11:00 – 11:45 Session 1 – Content Consumption / Content Creation
