December has been a busy month.  Accordingly, I apologize to mobile diners for the stale food the last few weeks.  Rest assured, I’m cooking up some stuff for you in 2009 and look forward to the many conversations ahead.

In the interim, here are a few nuggets that might be of interest:

SPRINT Press Conference at National Press Club –

Sprint will be holding a press conference tomorrow morning to give folks the 411 about their network preparation for the big inaugural festivities next month.  I’ve seen estimates of 5 million people (that is 10X our population) in DC for the big party and I can tell you that our wireless networks in the district were not designed for that many folks.  Kudos to Sprint for getting the word out to consumers on their efforts…

One additional note, this a good opportunity to remind our fellow Americans that we still do not have wireless service for everyone in the Metro.  However, the good news is that language that will set the course for wireless infrastructure improvements to Metro was a part of the Rail Safety Improvement Act that was signed into law by President Bush in October.

After many different roadblocks over the years, on the horizon, is wireless connectivity for everyone!  In the interim, since the law was just signed in October, you will only have access underground with a CDMA phone (if you have Sprint you will be roaming on Verizon).

Mobile Monday DC –

Mobile Monday DC is back in action tonight.  On the menu is a further look at “Electioneering in the Mobile Age.” Speakers for this evening include: Kevin Bertram (CEO, Distributive Networks); Michelle Mayorga (mobile program manager, Rock the Vote); Cyrus Krohn (e-Campaign Director, RNC); Scott Goodstein (external online director, Obama campaign)…

It should be a great event!
