was exported to Autocad and used to generate maps for quantity surveys.
He emigrated to England in the early 1990s, where he did some work on
developing quantity-surveying tools until he got involved with the first
enterprise synchronization tool for PDAs (ASL Connect).
After a number of years of work on Windows Server and Windows
Mobile/CE, he was finally dragged back into the world of Symbian
development. Currently, he designs and develops enterprise class software
for PIM Data Management (Onebridge) and device management (Afaria)
for Sybase. He is an active Forum Nokia champion and contributor of a
number of Symbian papers.
Paul’s areas of interest include ways that development can be made
both faster and more reliable so that end-user products (especially when
developed by teams) can provide a better experience out of the box.
He is a keen advocate of .NET and co-founder of two startups, next-
mobileweb.com and seqpoint.com.

abor Torok
G´abor has been involved in mobile software development since 2000,
when he started to contribute to Nokia S60 platform development. He
filled many roles, such as software engineer, test and asset manager
and software architect, which eventually gave him a good overview of
development in this environment.
His instinct to share knowledge with the community inspired him to
actively contribute to Symbian discussion forums, which was rewarded
by Nokia by electing him as one of the founder members of the Forum
Nokia Champion program in 2006. His further contributions were so
valuable that he’s been re-elected three times since then.
Nevertheless, G´abor is interested in other parts of the mobile industry,
too. He started his own blog in 2007 and got lots of positive feedback
from people commenting on his articles. He also decided to explore other
mobile platforms, such as Android, so that his view is not limited to a
single ecosystem, which eventually resulted in his involvement in writing
some parts of this book.
