Well, to fill a 10x10 it might do, but think of the effect of clogging
an aisle with people who are interested in hearing a demo. This can only
be had with scheduled presentations. Put it on a sign outside the booth
and on the handouts and have the booth staff promote it. That's the
advertising that I meant.

Last year there were show-floor presentation time available that Net
Direct helped to fill. I recommend you keep in contact with Janice (the
IT World rep) and make her aware that you have some presentations
available if she needs them in a pinch. 

There may be other opportunities too. The Toronto Asterisk User Group
was asked to create a "mini" asterisk conference for the show. I think
IT360 is working harder than ever to attract attendees and exhibitors.
Maybe there's an opportunity to do something similar with TLUG.
Brainstorming with Janice may make that happen.
