SXSW?

I'm thinking about going to SXSW in Austin this year. Is anyone else going to be going?

I found out that Guy Kawasaki is going to be one of the keynote speakers, and I would like to hear him speak. Also, I'd like to see what's new in media tech (and ebook readers of all brands) at the show.

I've always intended to go, but never have. Anyone know how long in advance before tickets usually sell out??

That's the one. I will probably register to attend this week (looks to be about $450 for a ticket to the "interactive" days. I really don't care that much about the film and music days, it's the other media tech that interests me).

Guy and Chris Anderson (Ed in Ch of Wired Magazine) will be onstage at the same time. I sent a message to Guy to tell him I plan to be there (he probably won't have much time to chat, but at least I can give him a big ol' hug), and I'm hoping that the various companies producing ebook hardware and software will be on the trade show floor.

If anyone else from MR will be attending, please do let me know.

We will be looking forward to a detailed account.
Thanks, Ricky.
