It is across the road, about 200 meters or so. Remember Google Maps is your friend.

Is there anything "VMware related" for spouses to attend while the sessions are taking place? I saw a post somewhere about spouse activities but I can't find anything.

This will be VMWorld #2 for me. Staying at the Venetian. Various posts have uncovered much of the theme of the VMWorld party at the speedway, but nobody's figured out who the entertainment is yet. Any ideas? I figure they'll get a band or some sort of performance group (or both) on a stage out there.

Signed up, schedule's created. Staying acroos the street at Treasure Island. I actually got picked for a breakout on VCB. AND... My company has a booth, so I gotta man that too. Sunday afternoon arrival, Thursday red-eye out :o( Is there going to be a VI3Book signing party anywhere? I think US Scare-ways will charge me an extra $20 if I bring THAT book on board...

I've got an author's edition of the VI3Book which I'd love to have signed. I'm also hoping Edware and Steve will have copies of their books available to purchase.

The last I have heard is that it will hit the shelves on Aug 25th and the book store should be getting some. None of us have gotten any copies yet so this is all I know right now. I think we are also scheduled for a book signing at VMworld but I do not know the date yet

I hope it shows up before then...

And back to VMworld 2008 attendance: Still working on the payment details for the conference.

Don't you love internal politics?
