Die wichtigste IT-Messe des Jahres liegt hinter uns und es war wieder Zeit fuer ein Podcast des meet:Mobility Teams bestehend aus Steve, JKK und mir. Das Podcast steht natuerlich ganz unter dem Einfluss der zurueckliegenden Messe und in den knapp 60 Minuten versuchen wir moeglichst alle Highlights aus der Sicht der Mobile Computing Enthusiasten anzusprechen. Inhalt und Podcast wie immer nach dem Break:
