Mobile Portland

I'm trying to get more into iPhone development in addition to Android. I
picked up a MacBook and something about the display feels "off". Fuzzy, the
whites are too white. Something. I can't put my finger on it. So to the
iPhone and iPad devs on the list, what do you develop on? This is really
bugging me and I don't know what to do. I need to be able to shuttle this

Thanks Venkat - that's good advice.
I reckon my focus is really on the 'smartphone' space (particularly
applications) but also that gray area of netbooks and maybe tablets
(depending on those shake out) and not really the larger 'mobile'
space.
I'm at Computex right now and the focus here is certainly broader than

If you are mostly interested in "smartphones" then perhaps the usual developer conferences of RIM, Android, WinMob, Nokia and Apple are perhaps good places to start at. However if you are interested in the broader "mobile" segment then you may want to start with the standard fare of CES, CTIA ( both the wireless and IT & Entertainment ones), ESC, Mobile Web, MMF and etc. There are also a couple of interesting mobile summits organized by the research groups that I personally have found worthwhile going to. But if I remember correct they cost "mucho pesos".

I'd be really interested to hear more thoughts on this post. I'd never
been to a trade show before going to CES in jan and then GDC in March.
But now I'm headed to a third show (Computex) and we've found them to
be great tool for both learning and getting a head's up on trends.
But in the mobile space I wouldn't even know where to start. We've

I think the vendor conferences are particularly interesting. WWDC for Apple,
Google I/O for Android, BlackBerry Developer Conference. That gives you
their perspectives. I haven't been, but I also hear Gigaom's Mobilize is a
pretty good conference. Those come to mind off the top of my head, anyway.

as someone fairly new to the industry, what are your top 5 best bets
for (North American) mobile conferences? i'm interested in gaining a
wide-range of insights including business trends, strategies,
marketing, technology and some hands-on development (mobile web and
native apps).
