I've mentioned this before on the mktg-list - is there any possible way that we could take advantage of press presence at the event and do a mini-interview session or panel or presentation of some sort (with shiny press kits, of course!)? F13 will have been out for about a month prior to RH Summit; it would be a great time to reinvigorate press / analysts and keep the train of coverage flowing. It would also be a great time to work on trying to educate press on some of the "oopsies" that have been made (on their part). -robyn > > * Currently, the FUDCon in NA is scheduled for some time in FY 2011 Q4 > (December 2010 - February 2011).
