All I can say is that their tradeshow makes more money than any of their other endeavours...

Next year I have a feeling AVN will have competition in the tradeshow arena, just like they do now with XBIZ

Question is...will XBIZ go head to head?
Or will Klixxx go head to head?

Or will they both team up together and kill the tradeshow as now know it?

I am hearing and seeing things that lead me to believe AVN's complacency is about to change.

I am excited to see if a new hotel will change the ambiance for the webmaster this year. I'll also be comparing prices from last year at the Venetian, as well as looking at the amount of booths on the show floor.

With the attrition rate being what it is these days, and traffic not as profitable as it once was...I'd think it would be foolish for anyone to think that companies will still consistently float $25- $100,000 in expenses for a tradeshow in Vegas.

I know I hear a lot of people complain that they hate dealing with union labor, tradeshow booths, and getting gauged by the hotel for unnecessary charges.
Maybe next year, if what I hear is right, webmasters won't have to come out of pocket for anything....

Just airfare....NOW THAT would be something wouldn't it?
