VMworld 2009 – A big announcement

Well, apparently there is something going on during VMworld at 10:45am Pacific Time on September 1st.

Not sure what it is, but there are 2 tweets from John Troyer calling for bloggers/press analysts that are interested in attending either in person or via a webcast.

Here are the tweets:

What could it be about?

Could it be about an up and coming Mobile Virtualization Platform that VMware has mentioned over the past year?

Could it be about a new Cloud hosted offering?  Maybe leveraging the SpringSouce acquisition?

Could it be about VMware giving VMotion and vCenter Server away for free to combat Microsoft’s newly released Hyper-V R2 or Citrix’s XenServer? (Wishful thinking on my part)

What is in store for the virtualization community?

Well, we will find out on Tuesday.

I for one will be in attendance, and of course blogging about it.
