Soon(tm)BTW, any word on any fan sites, like say yours, providing video from the panels at Fan Faire? I know your personal videographer is stuck on childcare duty, but are you aware of anyone doing any filming?

I have to suffer from 2 days of workd still. ARGH!!!!!!I have started my packing, well, the piling a bunch a stuff in one place and getting the bulk of the laundry done and getting the suitcase from the garage phase....I can't believe I have to suffer through 2 days before we leave, though. <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />But... I'm actually going to bring a small bit of work with me *laugh*.  All for the good, though.  I have my own hedge against any Internet fees.  I product test cellular data devices and we have one which also has a WiFi router and the one thing I can't test effectively in the office (mostly because there is just one of me, ya know) is the max number of connections to it all doing various different data things.  I actually do want to hit "max load" (more load than most of our customers now use) to see if it can handle it. But, it also gives me free Internet (well, work pays for it), no matter where I go *giggles maniacally*.  I'll just need a power connection for it...
