Wheeee... a deaf-blind friend just asked me if I'd like to accompany her to the Technology & Persons with Disabilities Conference in Northridge, CA in March.

Here is the website: http://www.csun.edu/cod/conf/

If anyone here is attending, we'll be there from Wednesday 3/12 through Friday 3/14.

I plan to go and, between my XO, my cell phone, and my camera, I plan to take boatloads of notes and blog my tail off during my downtime.

Awhhh....damn! I actually won a "buy one, get one free" admission to the conference when I was getting my ATACP from CSUN, but I didn't take it because I knew I couldn't go.

Try the XO with every piece of equipment available! I just now tried a switch (works) and intellikeys (didn't work, but I didn't have a powered USB hub, and I think that was the issue).

If you see a booth for RJ Cooper, tell him hello! I just finished (like yesterday) hosting a 3 day workshop for him in my area.
