James Miller+1 guestI thought that this meeting was very well done. You had a very good speaker for the event and Jason did a good job of hosting it,

Virginia GurleyDion gave a great talk and painted an inspiring picture of mobile web apps' potential.

Paul McCrossonExcellent topic, excellent speakers. I was less interested in non-Palm dev efforts, so I felt too much time was devoted to this. It was relevant, but it could have been limited to the role of the Home Brew, and what the future holds in the face of HP's acquisition.

George WoodwardExcellent Secession! The speaker was first class and the presentation was informative and fairly easy to follow. The questions and audience interaction were very good. Keep up the great work. George

Nick BeckerGreat presentation from Palm. Lots of great information and insight into WebOS, HTML5, and the future for Palm and HP.

TracyDion was great but I'm not developer and some of the dialogue toward the end with the other speaker got pretty technical.Checked-in
-
John BurrisGreat attendance. Presentation was educational but I'd suggest one potential change in "structure" to keep folks engaged. I'd suggest that we divide up presentations into two sections - a high-level more general section on the front end and then a more technical / developer section on the back-end (of course only when this type of content exists). This would allow for a formal break in the action, where non-developers
could leave the meeting before we start flashing code samples and technical stacks on the screen. Just my 10 cents.
