I really enjoyed it as both speakers had interesting projects and experiences.
I learned a lot about deploying to the Apple store and general pitfalls to avoid while developing using Sencha Touch.

Looking forward to the next one.

great talks guys, looking forward to the next one! May be someone can show live how a sencha application is packaged into an IPA through phonegap and then can be uploaded through xcode...

Good effort folks! Hope to see more about cracking into Sencha, especially for us poor windows based coders.

Must mean he cares about the subject he is presenting and the people he is presenting to?

Second talk by Adam Duncan (Clock) seems a bit nervous reading from the jumpy laser pointer
