Macworld Expo 2009 officially ended on Friday, and media and attendees have since scattered back to their respective locations. Beyond the product announcements themselves, we certainly enjoyed meeting up with readers and other Mac personalities from around the world.
Delicious Monster sponsored a meetup for our readers and the following companies provided giveaway prizes:
Dr Bott,
Speck,
Beejive,
Iconfactory,
Just Mobile, and
Ten One Design. Thanks to them.
