Ok, The Apple Expo in Paris next week (10. - 14.sep) - Who'll be there?

Should we have an AI meeting??



Who'll be in Paris and what day???

giaguara

Uh, do i have to start?



Undecided what day(s) in Paris but trying to make it to see the expo. Maybe deciding in the last moments...

I would like to come, but I don't have the money.

Well, I'm arriving in Paris at Saturday... Leaving the night of the 10th...



Seems that the keynote is in a different location than the acctual expo...

peperone

I will be there for the keynote... Just one day (September 10).

anders

Too much on my hand (work, school etc.) to go there this year.



But next year I have moved to Berlin (hopefully) and courses don´t start until october so then I will have the time.

peperone

Hey you are Italian... :eek:

i'm about 80% sure Im coming, just for keynote and expo and prob leave the same evening back to Brussels.



The Keynote IS elsewhere and if its like 2 years ago, there are free busses that bring you to the expo after the keynote. Pretty cool stuff



We tried to have a meetup 2 years ago too but no one knew the layout of the hall.



If its anything like 2 years ago, we could meet at the Apple area... at the, dunno, Quicktime section or something. We should give a specific hour and PLEASE have something that will identify ourselves this time.

BTW 2 years ago my friends and I had a BLAST making a video at the apple stands. There were iMacs with digital video cameras and you could make your own iMovies on the fly. If they have the same thing this year, I propose we make an "AI at AppleExpo Paris 2002" video right there and then.



I'm pretty good with iMovie, but if anyone that has a lot of experience with video will be meeting at Expo, this would be really fun!

new

So we should meet at the Apple iMovie stand just after the keynote then...?

giaguara

So wait i suppose i need now a new registration for the key note ..?



I'll search for the possibilietis to come monday then...

peve

i'm coming - and i will be staying 'till sept. 13. (paris can be nice).



so the meeting point is imovie-stand at "paris expo" after the keynote?

is that confirmed?

or should we meet before the keynote?

new

your addmittance pass will be marked with a "K" in the pink VISITOR/VISITEUR area if your registered for the keynote...

But seating is limited... (first-come, first-served)

The Keynote registration is now officially closed...



the keynote will be held at a place called "Palais de Congrès" at 10:00 tuesday the 10th...

While the actual expo is at "Porte de Versailles" (Hall 4).

giaguara

Uh, so if i didnt register in time for that but have the expo pass and still am there early enough... could enter there? or have to skip that?

i signed up for the keynote, got a email that confirmed it and don't have a "k" on the pass.

wtf?

new

I don't know... maybe you could fake the "K", or maybe they even have list of names?



Anyone been to this before?

***CONFIRMED!!!*** LOL <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" />



Lets say 12:30? The keynote may start a few min late and drag on, plus time to get to Expo...



There is also lunch to think about... make video first then eat? Or eat then do a video? Or make the video while eating???



We should make a script Anyone have any dumb ideas?

A print of the email should probably do...?

zo

i was there 2 years ago:



get there AT least by 9am.



There is a huge line and they have to check your ticket plus ID in order to get into the keynote area.



secondly, if you have issues about your registration, mail this person olivia_dareau@reedexpo.fr since she is charge of the passes and stuff.



I have THREE passes now. 2 normal (no K) and she resent one of them with a K. I have afriend who has a K ticket and isnt coming... BUT they check ID (at least they did last time) so not sure if its any help.

jambo

I was planning to go but now I have a new job and I don't have time



J :cool:
