We are excited and happily surprised by the high number of pre-registrations for our talk, the room is almost full already! However, if you plan on attending this session, make sure you check your schedule as Sun decided to move Filthy Rich Clients from Tuesday to Thursday late afternoon, to make room for some JavaFX thingies.

Also, we will be at the bookstore for a signing session. After our session, from 5:15pm to 5:45pm, if you have a copy of Filthy Rich Clients and would like us to scribble on it, come by and we’ll be happy to deface your book.

I will also probably spend some time at the Google booth where you can always stop by to chat about Google related stuff.

I highly recommend reading it.
