Wannahaves at the Demofall 2006 Conference

DEMO is the premier launch venue for new products, technologies and companies. For more than 16 years, DEMO has established a reputation for identifying and presenting to an elite audience the products most likely to have a significant impact on the marketplace and market trends in the coming year.

Check out some of the timesavers, like Dash Navigation Inc. - love to have that - or Plugged, Inc. - too early for me but great product, or Riya.com - a solution everyone will want to have. Or find your own "wannahaves", at the Demofall 2006 conference.

Opera Mini™ is a fast and tiny Web browser, that allows you to access the full Internet on your phone.
I downloaded Opera Mini to my Sony Ericsson today.

It works great with Gmail, PicasaWeb and some News sites! I have yet to try out Maps, Positioning services and Music.
Before you install it, try the simulator. To install, just type mini.opera.com (in your phone) and then select your language. That's it.
