Rx ftw

pdc rules!

personally im hoping for some (lots) of project natal sessions.. how do you program it? whats the api? also some info on the tech it self would be super awsome.. and demos.. Smiley silverlight or.net even for xbox/zune would also be great to have some sessions on.

but no keynode from the Gu? say it aint so... the Gu must keynote i say Smiley i'd also love to see some sessions with him, i know his busy but he's such a good speaker. Erik and Anders also have to have sessions Smiley A session on Rx with erik would be unmissable.

btw, since you both tweet, (Ritzy/Anyware if you're not following them) will you listen to feedback there as well?

Last year I heard that PDC09 whould be filled with WindowsMobile "7" (and CE 7) sessions/workshops/keynotes, is it sill going to be the case ?

I want to hear more about that top secret project Paul from Ping is working on, perhaps you're bringing WinFS back?

How long until we start to see anything about what the content will be at PDC09?

We're doing pretty serious levels of desktop WPF development, but we're (generally speaking) not interested in Azure, mobile or the web (our software connects directly to some pretty serious hardware). I appreciate that that makes us an edge case, but I'll need at least a general idea of whether there'll be any relevant content to make my case to management for a plane ticket from the UK!

We'd be interested in anything to do with desktop WPF, parallel programming (sonds like there'll be plenty of that) and general desktop .Net. The Rx framework looks awesome Smiley , BTW.

Finally! It is PDC09 time!!! Can't wait to see what content will be included in this year's conference.

I am very interested in the new SharePoint 2010. I know there is a SharePoint Conference in Oct. But I will attend PDC instead because I am a developer and there is more veriety of contents at PDC. But I still hope I will get alot of new information on SharePoint 2010!!!

Probably have to pay my own way this year...so I'm hoping there's a bag this year Smiley

This PDC 2005 bag won't last forever...

Edit: Are there no PDC prices yet? The registration seems to be a contact form where someone will get back to you. Not really what I wasnt to do, I want to see $$$$.

Edit 2: Found it, http://microsoftpdc.com/Registration. Guess I didn't take the right happy-path Smiley

Have to wonder about this PDC, it looks a bit Tech Ed -ish. My understanding was that the PDC was always about the future, given that Channel 9 has already provided brilliant coverage of .NET 4 / VS2KA and a lot of concurrency stuff there doesn't seem to be too much First Time Shown technology here.
