Live From VON

IP Inferno is in Boston for Fall VON! Not at the friendly and familiar Hynes Convention Center, but in the new Boston Convention and Exhibition Center -- a beautiful facility built in a hurry to host the Democratic National Convention... but unfortunately the rest of the infrastructure to support a conference... So everyone is staying 30-45 minutes away in hotels that are walking distance from VON. But perhaps more distressing -- there are no restaurants, no coffee shops... Stuck in a quiet convention center in the far south end of Boston...

First impression: Seems like a smaller show than in San Jose in the Spring. Only a few of the attendees are really here yet so its not fair to judge on that basis -- but looking out over the show floor, it seems smaller.
