If you were excited about the iPhone, get ready to get even more excited about the Palm Pre! Computer science majors (and other interested techies) — some guys are putting together a BarCamp style event to dive head-first into the Palm Pre SDK. As a long time Palm user, I’m really excited about the Palm Pre. So, I’ve volunteered to help organize the event in Baltimore.

Please share this information with anyone you think might be interested: all kinds of developers, programmers, and Palm fans. If you know (or work for) any companies that would be interested in sponsoring a mobile application development event like this, please send them to our sponsor page at http://predevcamp.org/sponsors/

This is a free and open event filled with good time and coding. The price of attendance is participation. I hope I can see some of you there.

“The event will be held in around 60 cities around the world exactly one week after the U.S. release of the Palm Pre. Since the phone is Linux+WebKit, development should be easy for us to share the love.”
