Its all a social thing for me. I don't go to shows to learn anything new
much any more. Its all on the Web, or as you say, in the trade show demo
/ exhibit areas - you can ask some tough questions, like, when will the
Atlas radios be working reliably? They rock when they work, but I'm on
pins and needles about the links I'm testing going south. hmmm.. If we
all end up someplace this year that's just for WISPs, I'll bring a pair
and setup a link for the whole period of time and have a 'bake-off'.. No
vendors allowed, or promoters..

something everytime I turn around. I am going to WispCon, but I aint
paying to attend a damn thing. Someone will give me a pass for the
exhibits and the rest of the sales BS can suck a limb. I do like going
to these functions for the meeting of wireless buddies and meeting
some I havent ever had the pleasure of meeting. I also like to rub
elbows with the guys whose gear I do use.

Hi,
Not sure what I did to get the WiNOG show "blacklisted" - but, taking
our
event out of the mix, if you were going to look at alternative WISP/ISP
shows, I'd highly recommend checking out ISPCON
http://www.ispcon.com
Although wireless is just one component of the show, the Golden Group
(show
producers) is a highly professional organization that tries REALLY
HARD to
cater to the small ISP/WISP
