Cool, both the app and the festival.

There is room for one more day button to the right of the logo.

Instead of the initial "please stand by", you could display some actual
welcome content for the user to read during the pause.

Page-wise scrolling always jumps a full page, rather than leaving the top or
bottom line of the previous page visible on the new page.  I'd prefer the
latter which helps the user stay oriented better.

The PalmSource conference guide had a nice feature to export any session to
the built-in Date Book.  That might be useful here.
