Devnexus 2009 conference

Reading the morning press, I stumbled upon the news that registration was open for the conference devnexus 2009 , which will be held March 10-11, 2009 in Atlanta.

The ticket costs $ 185 ($ 150 if you register before February 1 or in a group of five or more). It includes passes for both days and meals.

The list of topics (under the habrakat) looks interesting, in connection with which I have a few questions.

1. Who has experience of similar conferences? Should I go there?
2. Maybe someone already got there?
