giaguara · September 3, 2002 7:46PM

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 · September 4, 2002 3:58AM

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

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.

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 · September 4, 2002 6:46AM

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

giaguara · September 4, 2002 6:52AM

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 · September 4, 2002 7:06AM

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 · September 4, 2002 7:10AM

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 · September 4, 2002 7:16AM

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 · September 4, 2002 7:20AM

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 · September 4, 2002 7:25AM

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 [email protected] 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 · September 4, 2002 7:29AM

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

J :cool:
