WWDC "Sold Out" For First Time
WWDC "Sold Out" For First Time
by , 3:30 PM EDT, May 14th, 2008
Apple has confirmed that their Worldwide Developers Conference has sold out for the first time in its history.
"Response to this year's WWDC has been off the charts and we are delighted with the show of enthusiasm and support from the developer community for the new iPhone SDK," said Apple spokesman Bill Evans, according to Macworld on Wednesday.
Recent WWDC events have attracted about 4,000 developers from all over the world. Apple didn't say how many had registered this year before registration was closed.
Last week's JavaOne conference, which used all of Moscone South and North, some of Moscone West and a local hotel, required attendees to sign up online for many of the specific sessions. Apple has not yet required that, but the overflow crowds at some WWDC sessions in recent years have made it more and more important to arrive early or face SRO, even exclusion.
Observer Comments
Earthcomber might be the most important mobile search tool ever invented. I found it on the Apple website under mobile applications. I am so amazed by what I can find on Earthcomber using my IPhone that I left my wife and family in the middle in the night and spend all of my days discovering cool places throughout America with the help of Earthcomber and my mobile phone.
PS: Can anyone send me some new clothes and soap? It's dirty out here!
Apple has combined its "quicktime live conference" with its "WWDC" conference. Either way it doesn't mean anything besides the fact that it will again create an enormous amount of hype over absolutely nothing, and dumb consumers will fall for it yet again and pay Apple for absolutely nothing.

Ummmm, yeah. Whatever.
Troll much?
Well at least it does not lock up, have to be rebooted daily, does not slow down with virus protection paralysis, etc. It may be simple, but it works every time which is what customers really want. Cost more - not really, especially if you value your time. Hype over nothing. Not really. Hype over something(s) that works. WWDC + Quicktime LIve = ?
