757604 - [ORDER-MTV] - Need phone for B2G install, talk, demos and testing

[Schalk Neethling [:espressive]]

Hey there,

Speaking at O'Reilly Ignite about B2G and would need a device to do some demos and testing. Chris Lee [:clee] suggested I ping desktop support and ask to organize a Nexus S, I suppose if there are no Nexus phones available the Galaxy SII will also work brilliantly.

I will be in MV this Sunday 27 May and will be at the office on the 28th.

Thanks,
Schalk

We could loan you a Nexus S for the Talk but you would need to get someone from the B2G team to flash it.

[:zero] I have someone that will assist in flashing the device and getting a B2G image loaded. Would it be possible to keep the device more permanently? I am working on testing marketplace as well as developing apps for the marketplace and having a device more readily available would be awesome.

Thanks a bunch for the quick reply.

Hello Schalk,

I have set the phone aside for you. Feel free to stop by the desktop support area when you have a chance next week. We're on the 2nd floor to the left of the kitchen. Thanks

[Schalk Neethling [:espressive]]

[:pdang] Spoke to Laura and she reminded me that Monday is a holiday in the US. With that, will there be someone at the office from whom I can pick the device up?

Hello Schalk,

Forgot to mention that this Monday is a holiday. Would you like to pick it up on Tuesday, 5/29 instead?

[Schalk Neethling [:espressive]]

[:pdang] Unfortunately I am heading to SF Monday late afternoon. Could I possibly have a colleague at the MV office pick it up either today or tomorrow and leave it at their desk?

Schalk,

No problem. I can leave it with someone today or if you could let them know to stop by the desktop support area I can deploy it.

Thanks!
