MobileTrek 03- The Journey Begins!
Posted by Jason Dunn in "EVENT" @ 11:01 PM
Jim McCarthy is embarking on a geeky quest that I think you'll all enjoy reading about. :-)
"Connected Only By Roads ... Starting this Saturday, July 26 and travelling until August 11, 2003 Pocket Anywhere Publisher and Founder Jim McCarthy will gas-up the family mini-van and begin a journey that will encompass 3,975 miles of the Great American landscape, a handful or two, maybe three, of killer, tech-savvy gadgets.
Some of these toys will include an XM Satellite Radio, GPS (Pharos Pocket GPS and EMTAC CRUX II/BTGPS) Seidio and Akron Windshield PDA Mounts, San Disk & Belkin Wireless LAN cards, T-Mobile HotSpot Network Access, Roadwired's Podzilla! and so many more that you just need to read the gadget list. Starting from the beautiful Truckee Meadows of Washoe Valley (Reno, Nevada) and traveling through the beautiful valley of Coalville, Utah then into the hills of the Rocky Mountains, the MobileTrek 03 team will explore real-world uses of today's technology from XM's Satellite Radio, GPS and Bluetooth to T-Mobile's Wi-Fi HotSpots located in Border's Bookstores across the country.
After a brief recharge stop in Denver, Colorado for a few days, Jim will shoot on down the Rocky Mountains into the flat-lands of Dallas Texas. While soaking up the humidity and 100 degree sun, Jim will visit with some of the leading handheld companies and CEOs in the Dallas area like Handango CEO Laura Rippy."
