I would totally go with iago... If I weren't going on "vacation" to Winnipeg at the exact same time.  Talk about bad timing.
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

I'd totally go if I didn't have to be in SLC on July 31st. That, and if I were 21.
errr... something like that...

I made plans to go in April.  My friend booked a room and I had planned to buy tickets when I cleared the trip with my bosses.  They said it was fine a week or so ago, but I haven't really had the chance or motivation to buy the tickets, lol.

But yeah, it'd be awesome if you came, iago.  I'll spot the foreign fed!

Yeah... Looks like I'm not going to be going.  I just bought a sofa set thingy today... crap, saleswomen get me every time.
I tend to edit my topics and replies frequently.

So, I'm going for sure. Going to be staying at Circus Circus (across the street, I'm told) with one of the Nmap guys.

2.5 weeks!

awesome!  It turns out my friend is bringing his girlfriend too, so we'll have four people in our room, haha.

We'll have to meet up!  When are you getting there?  I'm flying in on Wednesday night, leaving on Monday afternoon.

I'm going to be there Wednesday around lunchtime, leaving Sunday afternoon.

I found out that rooms at Circus Circus are cheap++! like, $25/night on the weekdays and $50/night on the weekends. $230 for the full stay :D

We'll definitely hang out. I know a ton of people who are going, it's going to be super cool! :D

I'd like to go if I knew enough about hacking to appreciate/participate.  Although I'd still like to go for the "whoaaa" factor.

Defcon is OVER! An awesome time was had by all. Totally unbelievable, for me. I got to meet, hang out with, and even have dinner with some people I really look up to.

I also went out for a drink with Sidoh and his girlfriend. He got some pictures, which he'd better post here!

We also got some pictures with the Nmap guys, I'll post them when I get 'em. I got some pictures of funny stuff myself, mostly WTFs or Fails I saw in the airport and stuff, but whatever. My favourite Fail/WTF will be posted by Sidoh.. the broken arcade machine. Hopefully his picture turned out :)

Did you happen to see anyone speak on this point about the iPhone being vulnerable to attack?

Looks like iago lost weight.
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

I didn't see any talks, but I heard a lot of people talking about it and my friend tried to trick somebody into thinking he was being attacked :)
