Alex,
As a sponsor and technology provider for this event, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to provide specific arguments pro v. con. However, I respect your views and think you doing a lot for the tech community by getting people to think and speak their views about this topic. I'd just like to state a few personal views:

Never turn down a chance to take the pulpit whenever you are offered an opportunity, especially when you can reach a new audience.

Don't make it about what's wrong with someone else's approach, but always make it about what's good and right with your approach.

When you can, always leverage someone else's marketing efforts to get your message out.

Go wide my friend. It's break-out time for the Philly tech scene and we all need your help to get/stay on the national map.

Chuck

What better way to change perspectives than embedding yourself inside the enemy? Please rethink this Alex.

Let's not forget that very common feature on these data devices: the ability to make a phone call to a person (or machine in the case of many customer service operations these days).

So integrating native or web apps to the device's calling feature may seem pretty basic, but is also very easily overlooked. Note how few mobile apps display a phone number in a "prominently clickable" fashion.

Lots of businesses out there still want your phone call ahead of your anonymous data click. There will be some breakthrough apps that make the calling process integrate really well with the data features.
