Well, I'm loaded up with all kinds of gear, should be able to get online between shifts at our E3 exhibit and share pictures, experiences, and whatnot.

Starting here, I'm at Newark Airport in NJ. Isn't wireless technology wonderful?
As usual, whenever I'm going to be away, something breaks. Looks like our online guide is broken and I haven't been able to get in touch with Adam. Usually he just snaps his fingers and the database obeys.
I'm looking forward to this years' exhibit. Last year we had no idea what we were getting into, and while it all turned out great, some things took forever to get done. The setup wasn't at all efficient. This year we're on top of things and even though we've got less personnel I'm confident we'll have a faster setup tomorrow.
The crew is much more relaxed about it as well. John and I even put together a little gag for the concourse, announcing "NEW FOR 2005" and then proceeding to describe the futuristic Starplex Controller. "Unique five button design!" "Perfect for your favorite space shooters like Star Fox(tm)!". Heh. Then you see this early 80's hunk of technology all brand spakin' new. We even have a Mythicon Star Fox game sitting beside it. Yeah, maybe it doesn't sound so funny but it's the sideways looks at the display that I'm looking forward to capturing
My plane to L.A. boards in 45 minutes. I'll see some of you there - others I'll do my best to convey in pictures and text right here.
Game onwards!
