Maybe this might be off topic, but was anyone else invited to this so called event besides Russel Hollly at geek.com? When I google it the articles all cite geek.com as the company who posted info about it. Im tempted to say he made it up lol and the other half of me says well if other companies were invited ,why is no one else talking about it? Can anyone else confirm that this event either took place or that another company was invited?

This is just my conspiracy theory, but I think the event was not supposed to be public knowledge, i think some people got the phones last night and maybe an explanation of 4.4 and are now under NDA. Russel said himself he wasnt supposed to make it public.
Of course they may have just wanted to throw a party with Capital Cities and done nothing other than that.

It very possible, as somebody who BETA tests HW for a non-Android focused company we get the HW approximately 6 months prior to its release and the Press get the HW approximately 2 weeks prior to the public launch.

It was not that sort of event.

Seriously, forget you ever heard about it.

You mean like it wasnt an event for the media to attend? Im sure it might not have been related to Nexus news, but most of the time if not all the time Google has an event there is usually some coverage. Even if its not nexus news, Im still interested in what was discussed. Is there any news outlet that did do a article about what new things we can expect from the play store?Thank you in advance!

Several attendees tweeted during the event. There was no mention of breaking news or anything like that. Seemed like just a party. It was all safe and sound.

Why not. Capital Cities is on tour on the East Coast, and Googlefolk got a chance to enjoy autumn in the big city and party with them. Or shall we say Play with them.
