I'm going, but I guess you knew that though did'n't you Eric ;)

Will be staying in the Palazzo, and I arrive in Sunny Vegas on Saturday Afternoon, Red Eyed a bleary from a flight across the Pond. Any other Brits going

Make sure you rest up for our Vmtn session on Wednesday, it will be nice to finally meet the people in person that we normally interact with electronically.

May want to check the registration page again. I was able to signup for sessions already, but maybe it is different for partners. Also, does anyone know what the 'main event' is at the VMworld party on Wednesday?

Well there's definitely plenty to choose from, depends on how much you want to spend and how far you want to walk. I got a really good rate at the Venetian. If you're a thrill junkie you can always try the Statosphere, I rode the Big Shot a few years ago and it was kquite a trip..

That is on my list this year. Perhaps we can get a bunch of us here to meet up and head over there for some thrills :)

They've added a bunch of rides to it since I've been there. Looks like they removed the roller coaster from the top and added the Insanity and X-scream rides. Could also go see Carrot Top at the Luxor, he's usually worth a few laughs.
