NONE of the above is true...(Who did you talk to??) The facts are: what you are referring to is NECC which is sort of, the K-12 version of Educom... and we are NOT hosting it,(vendors don't host those shows..) tho we do have the biggest booth (though NOT 3 times Apple's and IBM's...) AND are probably doing the opening key note. The only thing you were right about, is that we are excited about it. >Looking forward to that one.
