January’s consumer electronics onslaught seems to be slowing down, with attention in February turning to Mobile World Congress in February and CTIA later in March.
Today, a note on an AT&T developer conference at the CTIA event — including what could be some of the first details about its Android plans — plus T-Mobile rumors, LTE patent pool talk and more.
Mobile operator developer conferences became all the rage with Verizon’s ODI effort; AT&T’s day at CTIA will feature and app contest with Brew, Android, Java/RIM, and Open categories — what, no iPhone? Guess that’s one platform they don’t need to entice developers to developer for.
Frequent rumors re-appear, with more force? Look for some analysis from our wireless editor, Kevin Fitchard later this a.m.
