The majority of them do. Be sure to ask when you call them, though.

All major shuttles do, city busses do not.

That's 909 and jpl's pick. It was the real birthday celebration. If you put shirts and ties on these dudes ..... service was incredible. I'm talking about father's office. The bartender also recommended a killer beer store in our neighborhood. You have to wade thru the gangs of asian hotties ... but try the great white. ) And the burger will get you thru.
Then there's a jazz club next door.  ... also Sabor Lounge I highly recommend.

This should be a really exciting venue! Looking into my crystal ball. Hmmm........ I see a couple of other members who just might make it to the Uber exposition. ;-)

I might be there - very tempting. I know my way around LAX and Southern California in general, spent 9 months there in 2007. I wouldn't be able to bring that much cool stuff, but at least I'd bring my new cam and take tons of pictures

Don't worry about bringing cool stuff, just get your butt down there and take some pictures while you take in an amazing event.

Great to hear you are coming out Everett! The website did not work for me either but they found the group rate when I called in today. I suggest that you do it fast because they claim the room block is almost sold out. I find that hard to believe and will check with 909 and jp11801 but get in there now to be sure! See you in May, my friend!

I just booked a room at the group rate (had to call, the group code doesn't work on their website). I was told I got the very last room.

WHA?? They're sold out 4 months prior to the event?
Hopefully they'll open up another block of rooms...
