The UMPC development community manager over at Intel made a forum post at UMPCbuzz requesting some open, honest and direct feedback regarding how Intel can improve the UMPC software development process:
I’m the mobile software development community manager for Intel. I’m intersted in listening, engaging and learning from the UMPC Buzz community. Please let me know how Intel can help you write the best software for the UMPC platforms. Do you need specific tools, technology, information to write your code faster or more robustly?
Please take this opportunity provide Intel with your thoughts. We don’t want to scare this guy off, so please make sure to remain professional and friendly. Basically, don’t act like this jerk:
First, I applaud you for making that post and engaging the community. Bravo! Kudos to you and Intel.
Second, it doesn’t matter how easy you make it for developers to create code for the UMPC if no one is buying the thing. The best thing you could possibly do is light a fire under the UMPC marketing boys at Intel and Microsoft. They are not earning thier paycheck (check www.ultranuats.com for some lucid commentary on the UMPCs marketing failures).
In fact, it would be fantastic if you could get the marketing guys (and gals) to create their own thread here so you can address both the development and marketing sides of the UMPC coin. That would be very, very helpful.
*WINK*
