When I saw this I
though fantastic, an alternative to a mariachi band. The seemingly
obligatory mariachi band in Albuquerque is for me almost as
bad as the hotel room challenges.
As long as I am
dumping on meeting locations, please note the following relevant to
March/Florida, how about an 802 led boycott of Florida?
Works for me :-) I don't
like Florida that much anyway ... How about something in
Europe?
Or ... have we EVER had a meeting
in Brazil? (probably the largest market potential in So
America)
ANATEL might even be persuaded to
consider some sort of sponsorship/special
arrangements.
Brazil was VERY hot on the 5 GHz
allocation.

The
state of Florida is
mulling a rule that could result in taxation of computer networks - both WAN
and LAN.
The rule is taking businesses by
surprise, according to a story in the Orlando Business Journal:
http://orlando.bizjournals.com/orlando/stories/2003/08/25/story1.html
The article says the state would
tax networks 9.17%, and local districts could add their own tax to it. What
exactly would be taxed? Either the lease payments or annual depreciation of
network equipment, according to the article.
