Back at the Cebit. Day 3. Today the exhibition starts. Traffic is a mess. You do not want to be in it. I’m already at the booth. Drinking a cup of coffee and again using the Internet connection (wireless) from PALM.

Our theme: ‘ Get a Life ‘

Okay the show can begin.

:: day 2 ::

Cebit is not open yet. However we see press and we improve our booth
Everything is ready. I still use the internet connection of mitac. Nope. I did not ask if I could use it. I call this ‘ Free Internet ‘

Nearby our booth we see Acer. Acer has a very very big booth. This will cost a lot of money. Is that a reason why they will close factories in Holland? 400 people will loose their job.

Okay back to work. Installing some systems, notebooks and maybe a wireless network with WEP encryption ;-)

::update::
Found a much faster WiFi Internet connection (here in Hall 2) it seems it is from our neighbours: PALM [G] with SSID: 101
Nope I do not tell you which company I work for :-) try to find out. I will be here till friday. Saturday I will travel back to Holland.
Yes you can shake hands if you want ;-)

Oeps.. our presentation is having some troubles under Windows XP. Which dude has tested this? Damn I have to change the settings. Now I’m using the default slideshow of Windows XP. Cool feature (but I’m totally no XP freak).

Still using free internet from PALM (company) and I thank them :-)
Wifi rulezz big time.

Nice to know: we have more than 500 liters of beer with us. (Dutch beer).
Every day a happy hour at the end of the day. Wheeeehoooeeee.. Let’s get drunk ;-)

Are there any other Cebit webloggers? :-)

Testing an USB Wifi device here at the Cebit. It’s really cool to see a site survey and yes of course trying to logon a network with Internet.
Guess what: this message is written at a system wireless connected to a ‘ server ‘ / accesspoint of Mitac. Nope no WEP encryption no security. Plain simple DHCP.

This is really cool !

Yesterday evening we arrived in Hannover Germany. Preparing our booth at the Cebit 2002
Right now I’m testing a ‘ work ‘ pc for connecting our employees through the internet to their mail and other stuff. Working flawlessly within 15 minutes.
Psst (be prepared that you have a dialin account from Germany otherwise it will be very very expensive.

Ok. greets to Lilian as see is alone this week at home :-)
Love you ! (sentimental mode on)
