WWDC 2009

Apple has announced WWDC 2009!!  The event ticket costs USD$1295 when you purchase by April 24. This is really not cheap.

According to my past WWDC experience it costs me roughly USD$2000 to 2500 for the whole trip if you stay in cheap hostel. But, yeah, hostel experience in San Francisco isn’t really that good. But the conference itself is for sure a good experience. I met quite some friends through my past 2 visits to the conference.

Are you going for the event this June? Leave us a comment here.

Well, who didn’t watch the live text cast? Guess none of us would answer no!

The iPhone OS 3.0 has been announced. Apple is saying there are 1000 new APIs and 100 new features. So, fellow CocoaHeads, it’s time to learn some new stuff! The great thing is… the new OS is available to us as beta immediately!

With this announcement, I think we can’t not do a meetup about the latest OS in April (if terms allow).

The course will take place from 9:30-5:00 each day (with breaks) at the Hong Kong Productivity Council build in Kowloon Tong near the MTR station. The fee is HK$5,040 after early-bird discount (if you sign up before February 25). Plus, plus under the New Technology Training Scheme, you can receive a 50% discount.
