WHEN: AUGUST 19TH, AT 7:00 PM. WHERE: NORTH YORK CIVIC CENTRE / COUNCIL CHAMBERS.* 5100 Yonge Street, Toronto, ON M2N5V (*Parking info at the end of the message*) * Dear TAUG Members:* Please excuse this extreme short notice for a TAUG meeting announcement. Our friend and facilitator, Simon Ditner (founder of TAUG) has conveyed to me that he has immediate business obligations and is unable to coordinate the monthly TAUG meeting at this current time. I've offered to facilitate and coordinate the meeting, along side my monthly business referral networking meetings at the same premises. *Our guest speaker is Ravin, President and Founder of MoFiNetworks.* He has generously offered to give away 10 routers in a free raffle - a total value of over $1,000 CDN to the attendees of the meeting. Combined with the TAUG attendees, the meeting will be dynamic as you will get the chance to socialize and meet with entrepreneurs and business owners, in a very casual and informal settings. A separate room will be available for TAUG members who wish to exclusively speak with Ravin and discuss the technical aspects of the router. *MofiNetworks is the producer of 3G Internet Routers* that has an USB port to connect your USB Internet Modem (aka Internet Stick, Rocket, etc). This is the **only** router in Canada that has support for ALL Canadian carriers offering 3G / 3.5G wireless internet (via USB internet stick). *3G Router Loaner Program: *We will also have 20 loaner units exclusively for the TAUG folks who has shown an interest with this router (those of you who requested an unit reserved, you will get the first preference). Please ensure that you have **valid** ID with you as MofiNetwork needs to know where the loaner units are going to. Without valid ID, you will need to put a deposit of $99 per loaner unit. *For the curious who demands technical specs, *the router runs on embedded Linux, has 4 LAN Ports, 1 Wan, 1 USB (for 3G Internet USB Dongle) and is of course WiFi as well. It has 2x 16 MB DRAM, and 4MB ROM. Organizing and facilitating events in itself is a full time job and I will be working closely with Simon to help ease the burden. For those of you who do not know me, I've worked closely with international events organizers, representing TAUG at major conference and trade shows both in Toronto and International venues. I had been an active poster and contributor to TAUG since almost its conception, but have not participated frequently in online contribution since the last 2 years - as my efforts in training and evangelizing Asterisk technology has been focused at live events. * Kind regards, Reza.* ============================================ Toronto based VoIP / Asterisk Trainer, I.T.
