We may have trouble getting internet cheaply. We can take up a
collection, or just take it really easy on the net and share however
many tether-able phones show up in the room. I've got one (rooted G1).

Ultimately, I bet that even if we have to severely limit our
bandwidth, it will be easier for folks than going to Redwood Shores.

What do y'all think? In particular, ericP, Richard, Dan, Juan, Souri,
Ashok, who have stated that they'll attend, please state your prefs.

☐ Pay ~$20/person for network.
☐ Share teathered phones.
  ☐ I have one to contribute.
☐ Schlep down to Redwood City.

It seems that we can get a free projector (courtesy of Wilshire
Conferences), but have to pay the hotel perhaps $100 for the
screen. I'm tempted to bring a white sheet and some tape, but
feel free to state your prefs.

We'll be on our own for lunch, but there's a decent pub just down the
hill from the Hilton (makes coming back from lunch that much harder).

Ashok, thanks a million for the legwork. Network et al may inspire
folks to take you up on the offer, but I'd guess 30% chance.
