The Catalonia Hotel in Barcelona Was One Giant Windows Mobile 7 Ad

Where: Plaza Espana 6-8, 08014, Barcelona, Spain

In case you didn't know, the Mobile World Congress 2010 happened last week in Barcelona and thousands of mobile networkers convened to well...network with one another. And it looks like Microsoft went out of its way to promote the new Windows Mobile 7 platform while staying at the Catalonia Plaza Hotel. (Side note: the hotel has free WiFi!)

Blogger Tam Hanna reports that during the day, the hotel's clock on the exterior was also set to seven. And at night, the hotel brightly lit up a square in the center of the building as well as several windows to create the number 7 which glowed from the hotel's exterior. Hmm...we wonder if the hotel can now say, "I'm a PC and Windows 7 Mobile was my idea."
