<The only thing flashier in the hall than WDM was the system vendors' booths - Pirelli outdid itself with a Ducati motorcycle giveaway, thumping music and flashing lights. Maybe next year they'll hire dancers.> You have to see this conference to know how amusing it is to suggest that anyone have dancers. This is certainly not the audience or the place to hire dancers. The general attendees are way too absorbed in photons to notice a few scantily clad females. So you have to wonder how desperate Pirelli is for an audience that they need to bring their motorcycle show to this exhibit and then give the press the perception that they had a 64 channel system to sell.
