How about a Ubiquiti AirMax Canada Conference

[MaximumISP]

How many people would be interested in an AirMax Conference in Canada

[george]

Not just yeah, but hell yeah.

If we had one here I could bring most of my team, in Chicago, being a cheap kind of guy, its likely to be just me.

But then maybe one of us is enough... 8)

[rconaway]

I say have the conference in Vegas.

[opampca]

Well I guess Montreal could be a nice place, great food, entertainment as much as you can take, cultural diversity...etc...
Sounds like a great week end !!

[Ron]

We need a "I know everything but I will attend" option in the poll.

[rconaway]

Depends, is my NDA done?

[WHT]

Ditto...is my NDA done (to the extent of the "M" family and AirMax)?

There is more to come I'm sure.

[UBNT-Mike.Ford]

Depends, is my NDA done?

Hey Guys,

Yes the NDA is done for AirMax and M series only.

thanks,

Mike

[WHT]

Good.... AIrMAX is TDMA polling ! ! !

Now ya'll can stop calling me a smug git.

[osnet]

Vegas it's the best place!

Well later on a Ubiquiti certification will grow jajaja!!! .... =) Like mikrotik does... and all the others company..

You like repeating yourself, eh?
You already told us that, using different words, almost a month ago.

[WHT]

Yup...Because *I* can and you can't.

[thewisperer]

need one in Canada: If you got caught with one joint 20 years ago, you are considered an alien and US customs (or immigration)= nazis
will not let u in!

lets forget about the millions of thieves and rapists that are already in the country but keep that guy with his joint of marijuana out!

[MaximumISP]

bump

[davey]

Yes the NDA is done for AirMax and M series only.

thanks,

Mike

Only? That means there is more!!!!!!!! :o

[rconaway]

I can't say.

[davey]

I can't say.

That is now strangely comforting after the last NDA turning into this product range!

Hub synch unit next!!!!

[converbit]

I would be interested and would bring some of my customers on site. I would appreciate to get an idea if this will happen soon otherwise we will show our faces in Chicago.

[WHT]

I can't say.

[rconaway]

I can't say if I can say.

[WHT]

Ahhh....the Iran Contra Affair investigation defense!

Or my favorite quote from the 1979 movie Apocalypse Now,
Sir, I am unaware of any such activity or operation - nor would I be disposed to discuss such an operation if it did in fact exist, sir.

[rconaway]

Or the Bill Clinton defense

"I don't have any specific knowledge of that incident. Wait, can you define "is" for me."

[WHT]

Iran Contra Affair investigation defense., aka the Scooter Libby "memory loss" defense.

"To the best of my recollection at this point in time, I do not recall the events your are referring to...." Or to that effect, I simply do not recall the exact wording. I have a memory loss at this point in time.

[UBNT-Mike.Ford]

The OJ simpson trial:

Kato Kaitlin defense:

"I dont know, I dont recall, I heard a thump...."

[WHT]

Or the Bart Simpson defense...

"I didn't do it, nobody saw me..."

[opampca]

There is a hint here :

[MaximumISP]

Yes i saw the flag but I havent seen a date
which prompted this poll :)

[opampca]

mmm...12 votes is not enough to get the show.... :-)

[DrNutbush]

Is that a German flag lower left?

[WHT]

Why is it that every time a tread degrades itself to such a low level, my name is somehow brought up?

[MaximumISP]

back to the bart simpson defence WHT
wasnt me man...lol

[TMC]

Le Québec vous dit bonjour!

A show in Montreal would be great.


TMC

[guibzh]

+1 for Montreal

[george]

I vote Montreal Canada!
Do I need a passport for that?:icon_twisted:

If so I vote Toronto...

George

[guibzh]

Why would you need a passport George?
You are in the same Country...

[LHC]

Vote for either (in the following order)
1) Windsor (Nice and close to USA Border/Detroit, cheaper hotels etc)
2) Toronto
3) Montreal

[MaximumISP]

I vote for Toronto but guys only
19 people have even responded to my poll
so I think we better get the word out to more people
if we want it to happen anytime soon

[george]

Why would you need a passport George?
You are in the same Country...

That depends who you talk to... :icon_biggrin:

[george]

TO would be first choice, then Montreal.

Windsor is a long way away from anyone north of TO, not so good plane connections either.

[WHT]

pitchforks and torches.
DUDE!...Its the Second Millennium.

Its DNS floods and root kits!

[UBNT-Mike.Ford]

DUDE!...Its the Second Millennium.

Its DNS floods and root kits!


Haha good one.

[ninedd]

I would be VERY interested. Be it TO, BC, MTreal or Vegas (I haven't had any drug convictions, yet).

[MaximumISP]

Kewl aparently they dont like us northern boys
seem to be having airmaxes in every country on the fn planet .....but here
wtf is our beer to strong for them ..too cold.... why..why not even a hint of one

dont know if anyone else noticed but originally the home page graphic

Not a good sign

[UBNT-Ben]

Hey Guys -

Warm up the weather for us ;-)

Where is best location in Canada? How many will be there?

We need to get next round scheduled...

Regards,
Ben

[thewisperer]

I'm in for Montreal.

[MaximumISP]

Toronto would work best for me
only a 3/12 hr drive
Lots of great facilities there for such an event

How many ..why everyone of course
every igloo up here will be empty that day :)

[caboteur]

Montreal would be nice!

[LHC]

Count me in!.. Toronto, Windsor or Montreal.. all works for me.. although Windsor would be nice.. and generally noticably warmer!

[UBNT-Ben]

If we settled on Toronto, how many would be in? I know I have been promised eskimo pies when I get there...

Ben

[WHT]

If it was in Texas, we could find some moon pies for ya...

[boum]

We prefer by far Montreal, however Toronto is only 6 hours drive.

[johnk]

If we settled on Toronto, how many would be in? I know I have been promised eskimo pies when I get there...
Ben

Toronto works for me. Only a 5 hour drive. :-)

Being from Quebec, I could bring some tourtiere (meat pie). Or torture. Your choice. :-)

cheers, John

[thewisperer]

the strippers at Chez Paré in Mtl look better on a bad day than the ones in TO on a good day!!!!

oh and the forty year old women in Mtl or Quebec city look like the twenty five year old ones in To

and French girls are so much better in b ooh forget it!

[MaximumISP]

Well judging from the poll so far I would say at least
26 businesses although this doesnt represent
how many would attend from each one
This also doesnt represent the large number that do not
participate in the forums

Ben if this is a 4sure I could start
to contact some of our clients and
get some feeedback
perhaps even post something up on our site
say some kind of poll or registration signup
we get a fair number of hits
I suspect there would be alot of attendees if
we started to take a proactive approach

If its a .. hmm.. mayby ..well see..sometime deal
then I wont waste the effort
Dont forget I started this poll back in 08-17-2009

You know how to get ahold of me

[caspat]

Go for Montréal!

[rockhead]

It's the frozen place that no-0ne wants to go
it's Toronto
it's Toronto

LOL, I'm closer to Seattle than Toronto, I'm probably closer to Los Angeles for that matter. For my money I'd prefer Hawaii if I'm going to travel ;-)

[UBNT-Ben]

MaximumISP - Thanks. Yes, what we are looking for as far as numbers go for each show is 150 people. Let me know what you find and we will put it together.

Thanks,
Ben

[UBNT-Ben]

Rockhead - Hawaii sounds nice ;-) Canada is absolutely beautiful as well...

Ben

[rockhead]

Ben

Yes Canada is great, but if I'm going to pay an arm and a leg to travel, i'd rather go somewhere that I can surf.

[opampca]

Montreal for sure...
Too bad the Igloofest is over
http://www.igloofest.ca/
Richard

[UBNT-Ben]

Igloofest...NICE!!

So, think we could get close to 150 in Montreal or Toronto?

Thanks,
Ben

[MaximumISP]

Im sure we could get that at least Ben
Contact me and we can get a start
on making this happen

[avolve]

Columbus, Ohio - Home of the Thurman Burger in German Village, Weldons Ice Cream in Millersport and the Buckeyes. If you build it, they will come.

[opampca]

Igloofest...NICE!!

So, think we could get close to 150 in Montreal or Toronto?

Thanks,
Ben

I have access to portal pages of a 200 hotspots and 135,000 users commmunity network in Montreal called Île Sans Fil giving free adsfree access to internet. It might help a bit if we put a banner for a while.
Richard

[UBNT-Ben]

Avolve = Stuart??? That ice cream shop sounds familiar...and of course the buckeyes reference...

[UBNT-Ben]

OK Guys. March or April? Just need to ensure 150+ as these shows are not cheap ;-)

[Paul P]

Interesting. People are very much interested to know the facts and to attend the conference. The hotels mentioned in the post is very good to know for the people who are traveling that place. They will get the information before reaching the place. There are hotels which provides all the services including spa, massage, parlors and many more.

[LHC]

April!!..Its a very nice time of year for either Toronto or Montreal!..

[TMC]

I vote for Montreal :-)

Bonjour Québec!

[thewisperer]

Mtl is my choice

[WHT]

√ Screw that I know everything

[MaximumISP]

Lol

Toronto √ √ √

[WHT]

Cues up Carlie Simon's "You're (Robert Redford) So Vain"


I'm so vain, I know this thread is about me...
I'm so vaaain...I know this thread is about me.
Don't I, don't I?

I had some dreams there was features in my AirMAx,
Features in my AirMax.....

[Dave-D]

I'd definitely go to a CN show if
it were in New Hampshire. Dave

[boum]

Montréal
goverment grants are now helping rural wisp projects

[WHT]

Goverment grants are now helping rural wisp projectsYeah..I read on Yahoo News that Parliament dissolved the CTRC. :D

[MaximumISP]

I just experianced that first hand ...It is was decided long before they ever
issued the rfp
Our municipal government also admited they or the consultant hired didnt even read my very detailed 650 page submission..... wtf..
The consultant who decide the whole thing had no networking or wireless credentials at all ...none... zero..nil (turns out he was also a Telus reseller)
It was a total FN sham

I will never ever dedicate any effort on that crap again

Amounts to Pr bull**** to make the *****ing rural taxpayers believe
that the Government cares lol

[bluwest]

And the lesson to be learned from this story is that the government sucks, telus sucks, and little gnomes that live under Baden Hill have the final say.

lLetters to the Editor come to mind.

[baloua]

looks like they are more interest for Montreal so me living here I'm all up for a conference in my backyard !! I vote Montreal

[MaximumISP]

Havent heard a word about it but Im thinking that once the artic circle finally melts, the climate reverses and we become the new tropical paradise
we might have a confrence up here

[WHT]

My Mexican huzband would fit right in. He still has his Canadian citizenship and sounds just like Peter Jennings.

[thewisperer]

Montreal = http://en.chezparee.ca/

[ninedd]

Hello - is there an official list of upcoming conferences, or are things still at the Voting stage? We are a WISP with a couple thousand CPE's, none of the Ubiquiti yet. We'd like to come to a conference soon, preferably in Canada or USA, and get up to speed quickly. :)

[jb_008]

I might be up for a conference if its held in Toronto. Its about a 7 hour drive for me to Toronto and about 13 hours to Montreal. At least I have a place to stay if its in TO. A few of my co workers may be interested too if there is one but I would have to ask around.

[Sirhc]

Canada would be cool but then we would have to bring our own beer.....J/K!

[jb_008]

Lol but then you could taste real alcohol... jk, being a border city, I pick beer up all the time on the US side just because of the huge cost difference, especially with the dollar right now. Customs usually has no issues with a 12 pack or less.

[bluwest]

Toronto for sure for me. But if I had to haul my butt over to Montreal I would, but Toronto would be much better. Is there anymore updates or information on if a conference is going to happen?

[thewisperer]

don't hold your breath for that one!

we are such a small part of ubnt's market that I think they don't give a @#%t about a conference up here.

That said, Ottawa is a nice place too.

[Headbang]

As long as everyone is voting for their back yard, I will too.

Edmonton or Calgary sounds perfect! Or even Vancouver (cheap commuter flights to Vancouver for me).

But Edmonton of course is preferred, it's a 5min drive away from me.

If it was in Toronto I know I would not be able to justify the 6hr flight and $3000 round trip. I might as well have gone to California, or even Prague.

[urmom]

Oww.. Certified Ubiquity N Technician

I want this to be my title.

[WHT]

That_is_so_wrong :)

[dannyt]

Toronto works for us... Very interested in a conference here!

[urmom]

That_is_so_wrong :)

judging by the private message that was waiting for me this morning from someone i replied to in a thread, it would be fitting.

[Bean_Planter]

Did anything ever come of this? Though I'm in the states, I would attend something in Toronto if offered.

Cheers,
BP

[voxframe]

Buler....?

Seriously, discussions of east coast conference, and still squat for Canada? Methinks a Toronto/Montreal would work as a semi-east-coast conference as well, considering we've had zero in the land of snow so far.

[Cable Guy]

Cowgary works for me

[Nornet]

Moowtreal sounds more eastern !
