Hey gang,
I am leaning towards NOT going to Bitcoin Expo in Toronto on April 11-13.
The conference seems VERY Bitcoin-centric (read: not alt-friendly) and I'm not sure how effective I can be there. It would be just as easy to target key stakeholders in other ways (email/Skype/etc), and that is far cheaper than the $2000 USD (~70,000 Nxt) needed to get me there.
Any strong opinions to the contrary?

mcjavar: I think you should contact them ASAP and apply for a speaker position: http://cebexpo.net/speakers/#menu
I don´t have the knowledge to talk about Nxt to a broader audience, but am capable of smalltalking and networking.
Edit: anyway, I will ask them if it wold be possible to get a slot somewhere
I was planning to kick my search for promo material for the A'dam conference into high gear over the next week, it would be a very good idea if we could pool our resources/co-ordinate promo stuff with the Vienna conference. For example, the RaspPiSolar (if i ever find someone to build it) from A'dam could be shipped immediately to Vienna for use there.
Lets stay in touch on this.....

I would be interested.
I´m pretty sure (98%) that I will attend to represent Nxt.
Anyone else?
We need someone with a deeper technical knowledge.
The location is just next to our office
EDIT: I will pay for his/her ticket, if we have a tech girl/boy attending with me.

"free" Amsterdam conf "tickets" http://bitcoinowl.com/call-bitcoin2014-volunteers?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter
I'm going to give it a try, 15 hours over the course of the conference will be acheivable. And it'll be useful for NXT to have people on the inside, so to speak.
Lets spread this to all Dutch/Belgian NXTers.....
I'm thinking; me, Damelon, Fatih, mikesbmw for a start. I'll PM them now....

I have a Tronsmart Quadcore Android TV stick.
I can be in Amsterdam within 15 minutes.
Just need to install that damn thing on the stick I think.

Here is my small tutorial:
OK, here we go. Small tutorial on running NRS in Android TV stick.
Tested on Android TV stick, running 4.2.2, RK3006 Rockchip, internal sdcard.
1. Stick has to be rooted.
2. install Complete Linux Installer from app store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zpwebsites.linuxonandroid
3. Go through all steps as it on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b17Bfza1X3A. I used small 13.10 image, because I installed it in internal sdcard. Extracted it takes 2GB. Important: use ext2.zip files if your android is less than 4.3 and you download them manually from http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxonandroid/files/Ubuntu/13.10/
4. If you did everything as instructed, you should see Ubuntu running on your device. Install java in ubuntu. Important: install oracle java
5. Now copy Your next folder to your desktop folder in ubuntu
6. goto to nxt folder, open terminal window in this folder, type
7. Now you can use chrome browser in android TV stick (no need is to have one in ubuntu) and check everything is working.
Didn't try on other android devices, but I think it should work on any android device.
Ask if you will stuck at some moment (i stuck 10 times in 3 days Smiley), I'll try to help.
Try to run everything in your stick, interesting to have second stick running NRS
EDIT: red changes to client 0.8.x
I'm gonna try it.
It's enough to be at simple user level at Android and Ubuntu (as I am), but you have to be familiar with it a little bit deeper
. Good luck and post how do you succeed.

i like Katie already, good well-thought out piece.
Except the TF part. The VISA thing really must not be mentioned for now.
We will not be able to do it in the near future. That is so abundantly clear, it needs to be taken out in future press releases.

@Fatih87SK and martismartis:
If Fatih is willing to take on the job of configuring his TV stick for NXT and delivering it for the conference, and martismartis is willing to help out with advice,tech support and configuration, u guys will make me very happy.
I can't make any solid promises about payment right now, but keep a record of the hours that u put into the TV stick project and I'll get some bounty for both of you from the conference budget. If i ever sort out a conference budget......

No problem. I'd like Fatih87SK to succeed on his TV stick. Maybe he could write better instructions how to do it
Fatih87SK, please feel free ask me if something goes wrong with your stick, for first time it was a little headache to me to run NRS on stick. Second time it took me 20 minutes to do this. In any case, waiting for news from Fatih87SK.
