Coming in late to the party here, but that's great to hear you both will be coming. And we have a couple people who are just starting out. Feel free to come to the Hacky Hour the night before to say hi to some of the people coming. http://startuptucson.com/ai1ec_event/hacky-hour-at-gentle-bens/?instance_id=13721

In terms of how many people are going, we are unsure. We currently have 14 signed up, and a large number of people who say they are going and haven't registered yet. Our current attendance is probably going to be about 20, but like I said, there may be more!

If you haven't registered yet, please do! http://startuptucson.com/hackathon

In terms of devices to hack on, I've had my eye on a nexus 7. Those are cool!

Hey Arthur, YES!  I am registered and will be there.  That’s another impetus for me priming my old gray matter pump by thinking along these lines.



How many are going to be there?

Liz, you might also consider coming to the hacakthon hosted by startup tucson this weekend (http://startuptucson.com/2012/startup-tucson-hackathon-august-10th-11th-at-spoke6/). I believe mobile development is the theme, or at least a theme that will be present at the hackathon. It could be a good opportunity to get a firsthand look at mobile development, try your hand at it, or just chat with other developers in the area working on mobile development.

If you did want hardware, there are phone-modem-free devices out there
(tablets like the Nexus 7 or iPad, or smaller devices like the iPod
Touch) that would prevent you from getting contract lock-in.

If you do want a phone, I'd only consider an Apple or Google 1st party
device.  No other devices are likely to get updates in a timely
manner, and both of these can be purchased unlocked for GSM/HSPA+
networks.
