Tonight sure felt like a reunion of sorts! Joel from Geek.com and I met at the Borders Bookstore Cafe in the Time Warner Building to have a quick cafe latte and try out the Zune‘s WiFi sharing capabilities while we had a chance. More on that in the upcoming Zune review. Gear Diary The Samsung 10th Anniversary Dinner & Party photo

Once we got upstairs to the Samsung event, we quickly ran into Vincent from SlashGear, Michael Oryl from Mobileburn.com, and Rich Brome from Phone Scoop.

The evening started with a casual reception in the main hall, and then we came into the Samsung gallery which had been transformed into an elegant dining hall.

After a few welcome speeches, we enjoyed an anniversary dinner and great conversation.

Tomorrow is the Summit meeting; I am looking forward to some of the new devices Samsung is set to reveal…including a 5″ screen UMPC with a built-in keyboard. We were told in passing that it is about half the size of the Q1 – I’ve got to get photos of that!

On our way out, we were given a gift bag with a swank black leather business card holder inside; I’ve already loaded mine. Ha!

Happy 10th Anniversary Samsung – Here’s to many more! Gear Diary The Samsung 10th Anniversary Dinner & Party photo

About Judie Lipsett Stanford

I have had a fascination with all types of gadgets and gizmos since I was a child, beginning with the toy robot that my grandmother gave my brother - which I promptly "relieved him of" in 1973. I have long been captivated by devices that did anything interesting or served a unique purpose - however silly. I can't tell you how everything works – but I am known world-wide for using a product until I have a full understanding of what it does, what its limitations are, and if it excels in any given area...or not.
