If you’ve been wondering how you might be able to afford the $1300 entry fee for Microsoft’s Mobile and Embedded Developers Conference (MEDC) this year, Derek Snyder has sent an offer you might not be able to refuse. For a limited time, you can get $500 off the fee if you give them the ”secret code”. ![]()

How do you get the discount? According to Derek’s post at moGadget, “Register at this site with the RSVP code DEREKSENTYOU to receive the $800 price point (a sizable $500 discount off the regular price). Hurry though, this will only last until April 13.”
In case you haven’t got a clue as to what MEDC is, this description was taken directly from their official site:
Mobile and Embedded DevCon (MEDC) is a global connected community of events focused on collaborative learning, shared knowledge and practical hands-on development featuring more than 130 technical sessions and 70 labs. This annual event is tailored for the developers, IT professionals and business professionals who are looking to innovate and scale their mobile and or embedded development investments, applications and solutions.
I get the feeling that there will be some very interesting topics discussed and some very futuristic ideas will be explored. If I have one more friend ask if I am going to go, I might just do it! Ha! ![]()
