Microsoft Exchange team just released the WM5 emulator with MSFP so you can test Direct Push via GPRS for your apps. You can download it here.
Of little more interest, and to stick it to my SBS Show partner, I ended up waiting about 40 minutes for the bus yesterday to get back to the hotel. I was wearing my deep blue shirt and hanging out with a bunch of burned out Microsoft staffers. We’re all wearing the TechEd “blue badges” but they don’t have their Microsoft blue badges so we’re chatting about the bus and everything…. So we finally gave up and decided to split a cab. Only bad side of this is that the cabs are on the opposite corner of the convention center. So we’re walking our few acres and I turn to the guy next to me that has been particularly ticked about the bus problems..
Vlad: So, what do you do for Mobility?
Omar: I designed MSFP.
Vlad: What do you mean by “designed”
Omar: I own the whole ActiveSync stack.
Got to chat about all sorts of things, very nice guy. So talk about making connections, WWPC boy.
