actually you __should__ be concerned about coverage indoors. At a tech
conference at the Egg in Albany we could not get cell phone coverage
inside the hall. people who knew brought cheap motorola walkie talkies
to at least keep in touch with their team.

btw, I wouldnt be surprised if some of those union workers werent
nycwireless readers themselves. Cable pullers of the world, unite! You
have nothing to lose but...well, therell still be cable to pull, but
you get the idea.

Seriously, check every bit of the venues offerings.
* will the cell phone work in the venue
* will the power they offer be enough foryour lights, servers, and
toys? how far before the show can you come in to setup and test? 
* If you take their connection, will you give you a static or dynamic
address? this can be important for keeping a connection to your office
servers. 
** Are they blocking any ports? 
** Is there throttling or asynchronous uptimes and downtimes? 
** whos the contact if something goes down (this can be really
frustrating--show organizer or venue?)

cheers,
