Off to a round table event tomorrow

“Where’s my BB?”

or more realistically, about IMEI tracing.

nice to see women well represented again at a mobile industry event 😉

If I thought there weren’t senior women in this industry, I wouldn’t mention it. But I know that there are (I help to organise the Women in Mobile Data Association) and that they’re talented but they seem to be either invisible to their male colleagues or unwilling to raise their heads above the parapet or just don’t get asked along.

2) Following up on Technokitten’s comment. I (along with two other Y chromosome holders) was fortunate enough to be invited along to the Women in Mobile Data’s Christmas Lunch late last year and every word Technokitten says is true. They are out there. And they know their stuff too. They just need to raise their profile a little…

If only one of them would start blogging more regularly…. 😉

…maybe something about their failure to meet 3G licence obligations? I mean, you only spent
