2009 UGent DIY• Mobile web = absolute developer fun!
• Issues in 2009:
• Mobile Web != Desktop Web (maybe this will change?)
• Still a bit Wild West: new practices, quirks and workarounds
• Libraries reinvent iPhone / Android look & feel but what about
older Nokia, Sony Ericsson, BlackBerry?
• What about: telephone, GPS, video, camera, tilt/touch sensors, 3D, app integration (agenda, etc)? Will HTML5 specs keep up with new hardware capabilities?
