How many people need to access the Wifi? My company has a mobile hub for
when we decide to work from a different bar than the one where our
office network reaches but it is limited to four users.

At least with paying for the room at Zingerman's, we get to eat, too
[unlike many other places that charge for space].

True. But the wifi there doesn't always work like we want for VOIP.
Not much we can do about that.

Re resp:12 - "If we had a laptop with 3G internet we'd be set whereever
we met (assuming the connection was good enough for VOIP so we could
call a conference line number)."
I've found it's as easy as pie to tether my MacBook to my Motorola
Droid and get a 3G connection on the MacBook. Would that help?

As you know, we just need to dial a conference number (if Tony lets us
use it) with something like Skype so we can allow people to dial-in (no
phone line in the room that we can use). So anything that lets us do
that reliably should work. The wifi connection at Zing's gave us issues
at the last meeting and the meeting before that. So if we can avoid
that, we might be better off. It's worth a try and we could always fall
back to wifi if we had issues with 3G.

Tonster has generously allowed us to use his toll-free conference line again
for this meeting. It's the same numbers as we used for the previous meeting:
1-877-647-3411
passcode: 567 783 2892

For as long as I've got it, we can use my conference bridge. I've been
a little absent lately as I've been tied up with work, and am currently
traveling in San Francisco, but I've given Kent the code to use for the
bridge. If I can attend this time I will, otherwise I'll catch you all
on the next one!

Have a nice time in San Francisco. If you see my son tell him to call
home one of these days. You know, home - where his comic book collection
still resides. ;-)

I planned on entering the meeting minutes early this afternoon but
accidently deleted them from my word processor and will have to rewrite
it from my notes. Darn! I have a few other things to do this
afternoon; will get back to this as soon as I can.
