Rocking into Amsterdam for Nokia World 2006

That’s me established in the hotel off one of the main squares here in Amsterdam. I’ve seen quite a lot of interesting mobile related things already and I haven’t even been anywhere near to the Nokia World 2006 conference 😉

For instance, I was rather impressed to find a disposable battery for Nokia (and other makes) hanging off a shelf at the Stansted Airport WH Smiths. £4.99 per pack — giving up to 480 minutes standby time… and, well, I can’t quite remember the talk time. Smart though, if you need power. I almost bought one so I could take a picture and document it here — until I noticed it had the large Nokia battery lead. They’ve recently swapped to small power leads and I forgot to bring my converter.

I am only in Amsterdam for 24 hours. Not even 24 hours, actually. Such is my jetset lifestyle. I have a critical meeting that I need to attend physically in London on Thursday morning, so I’m flying out tomorrow night.

I don’t quite know what blogging opportunities there will be at tomorrow’s conference. I’ll take the Apple anyway and we’ll see. Otherwise I’ll take as many pictures as I can and then post-blog it.
