Steve has been confirmed! Steve Jobs' Macworld keynote is pretty much the only reason to drop $215 for a Users Conference badge. It's the least expensive pass that will let you breathe the same air as His Steveness. The less fanatic will do just fine with an Exhibit Hall pass which can generally be had for free.
The tradeshow gods saw fit to pit Steve against Dell next year. The latter CEO will be keynoting at CES, which boasts an interesting lineup: Bill Gates will put everyone to sleep on Sunday. On Monday, Ed Zander can talk about how it would sorta suck for Motorola if Steve unveils an iPhone on Tuesday. Friend of Steve, Robert Iger, can M-I-C-K-E-Y everyone up later Monday afternoon setting the stage for the Macworld Stevenote!
