Join us for a regular (i.e. monthly) startup happy hour (5-8PM) and then come upstairs to our offices for the Mobile Monday event.
The Dallas Startup Happy Hour is the talk of the startup community in Dallas. Check out the coverage in the Dallas Morning News: <a rel=”nofollow” href=”http://tinyurl.com/sshhdfw”>http://tinyurl.com/sshhdfw</a> As a result of the events, several startups have found a) employees, b) co-founders, c) angel investors and d) had a few free drinks.
Are you interested in connecting with the local startup community? We are working to build a vibrant startup community here in Dallas every bit as interesting and dynamic as San Francisco, Boulder, Boston or Austin. The first step is engagement.

There have been a few rumors this week about Motorola developing an Android phone for Verizon. This is all 2nd or 3rd hand gossip at this point but according to Endgadget’s russian translation it’s got the following specs:
“Sholes” is a 3.7-inch (480 x 854) touchscreen device that will make its debut in the U.S. in October, featuring: 512MB storage, 256MB RAM, support for microSD / microSDHC up to 16 GB (an 8GB microSD ships with the phone), a 5 megapixel camera with autofocus, GPS, and the expected connectivity (USB, Bluetooth 2.0, WiFi), audio, and video formats. And if the translation wasn’t hopelessly garbled, the source is also saying that this bad boy will support both CDMA and EVDO Rev A.
If any of this is true it’s going to be good news to all of our fans who use Verizon. Fingers crossed!

We get emails every week asking us when ShopSavvy is coming to the Palm Pre. The Pre was released last month but all 3rd party application development has been on-hold because developers have not had the access to the SDK required to build apps. We finally got the word this week that the SDK was ready for prime time.
From the email we received it sounded like they were making sure that everything was going to be rock solid for the developers. Here’s part of the email we received from Palm:
I want to thank you for your patience while we allowed a few developers to kick the tires on our APIs, tools and docs before we released them to the rest of the world. We’re working hard to ensure that Palm webOS becomes a world-class platform for application development, but we need to do so in a measured and focused way so we can be sure we’re providing a great development experience and attentive developer support.
Palm may be playing catch-up but making it easy for developers to create is always a good thing. I know that our team is ready to get their hands on this.
