Opening speech by Mr James Loo, SiTF Wireless Chairman

The session was opened by Mr James Loo, SiTF Wireless Chapter Chairman. He gave a short introduction of SiTF Wireless Chapter, along with the upcoming events to look forward to for SiTF. The sponsors and exhibitors were then given the chance to present their solution to the audience. The solutions covered many aspects of daily life, including tracking home bills and crisis communication. The exhibiting companies include Inspire Tech Pte Ltd, SQL View Pte Ltd, ICSP Solutions Pte Ltd, Y3 Technologies Pte Ltd, RPI eSolutions Pte Ltd and hSenid Software (Singapore) Pte Ltd.

What Windows Mobile has to offer?

After the various presentations, the attendees were given time to visit the various exhibitor booths at the solutions marketplace by the side of the ballroom. By engaging in depth with the vendors, attendees would understand better if that particular solution best suit their needs for personal or organizational use. No doubt, this opportunity was a win-win situation for both vendors and end-users.

Networking remains a highlight

Apart from gathering information on Windows Mobile solutions, networking remains part and parcel of the event. As always, networking is an important component for attendees at the event. Participants took the opportunity to understand their counterparts better and kept a look-out for potential partnership deals.

Lucky lucky – a free MC35 Windows Mobile device!

The event was wrapped up with a lucky draw. Ms Grace Ho, director, business segment marketing, Microsoft Corporation, drew the one lucky winner who walked away with a MC35 windows mobile device. The winner of the draw was Mr Teo Yee Cheong, managing director of Bizpoint System Pte Ltd. With that lucky draw, the event was brought to an end. We shall look forward to more innovative solutions and more overwhelming responses for next year’s “I Want Windows Mobile” Solution event. Watch this space!
