There will be free wifi at the con.

If you have a notebook, you can access the wifi.

My laptop's battery only lasts me 3 hours max. Do they also allow you to use the outlets?

well minus the hotel rooms....

isnt there supose to be an internet cafe somewhere on site this year?

technically i wouldnt reccomend randomly plugging in ur personal items into a random socket at some random location in the convention center...

i could see someone accidentally taking out- arcade, video rooms, etc etc...

*everyone looks*

oops my bad. plugs master cord back into socket.   :P

Or bring a power strip. That way you can have 6 plugs instead of 1

@Dancing: Can't you bring your own laptop? since there will be wi-fi again and it should be where it was last year, near the entrance to the Hilton.

I saw some computers on the Marriott that looked like they were available for use one time, but I think you had to be staying at the hotel or you had to pay in order to be able to use it or something like that...

I think that was true when I stayed there in 06, my roommate found out how and used it. If you're a Marriott guest, you can ask (I forgot who) for a password and login name to use those computers. Don't quote me though.

Most hotels with wifi you just have to ask the desk staff for login info.  Just make sure it's free before you do.  I travel a bit for business and it seems like the high end places charge you for internet access of any type, while low to mid range places have it for free.
