Blackberry Jam Amsterdam, Any Buzztouchers in Amsterdam?

Tomorrow I'm heading to the Blackberry Jam in Amsterdam (http://www.blackberryjamconference.com/europe).. I'm going to get familiar with the new BB10 Cascades and native code. Participating in some coding sessions should be fun. Hopefully to report back some news and maybe get more BT apps in the new Blackberry World Store. I've never owned a BB but I honestly think they might have a good device this time. I'll try to send over some video from the conference if I have time. If there are any BT members in Amsterdam, reply here to privately. It would be nice to have a coffee and chat about Buzztouch! All thanks to Buzztouch that I'm able to call myself an app developer and attend these awesome conferences/jams! Thanks so much :) -- Also, I'm headed to the Mobile World Congress (http://mobileworldcongress.com/) in Barcelona if any of the Spanish folk or anyone else want to have a meet up. I can post it in another thread!

That's actually a phone I use; my blackberry. Glad RIM (oops, Blackberry) has a new lease on life. Or technology. I'm interested in seeing what's up. Cheers! -- Smug

Blackberry Jam in Amsterdam, such a beautiful ring to it. I kind of 'jammed' when I was there, more of a football thing though. Great city love it @mysps - Can't wait to read your updates. Barcelona became my new favourite city this summer, wish I could stayed. I expect a photo or two or maybe a postcard? You can send the postcard to: Crazy Guy in Kentucky with the strange accent. It'll get to me.

lol @MacApple :) Still traveling but the Jam was great!! Here are a few pictures http://www.snurlz.com/2013/02/06/blackberry-jam-europe-2013-amsterdam/ The Blackberry IDE Cascades seems pretty simple. The environment looks and feels like Android on steroids. Super fast looks to be easy from the coding session yesterday. The last session that I went to explained more about porting android to bb. The only "issues" with this is that the native features aren't really used so you aren't able to maximize the use of the BB10 functions. I think overall BB might be moving in the right direction. Met several elite developers and I'm very glad that I went. @MrDavid .. thanks I did contact him but of course this post was so late and he has lots of work. @Sheri thanks!!

who knows, maybe @mysps will singlehandedly get us to "invent" something useful for some aspiring BB devs? Keep up the travels - always healthy.
