too bad they used flash navigation, i wonder which slick design firm talked them into that.

Damn. I think I'm going to miss that one. I guess I'll just have to save my money and read Jeremy's "Report from Dubai"

wow you're faster than the DMCC guys! I haven't received the notification yet.
Does anyone know of a reasonably priced hotel not too far from the forum venue?

Nice pic btw http://www.dpe.ae/wpf/jeremy.html

oh I didn't know you were speaking at the event Jeremy, nice. I was going to ask what your topic was but I found it: Double-digit Growth in Pearl Jewellery Online Sales – Opportunities in the New Economy.

Used to run is more accurate. He started the company now owned by Robert Wan.

It just seemed strange that he was speaking on the subject considering its been decades since he was involved. I like Bill Reed. I just found it curious.

Not me in the coffee break of the second day - wish I was!

It may have been hacked by a third party, who then used the site to distribute their malicious software.
