Mike Culver NZ Australia Feb 2008
Thanks much to Nick Jones at the University of Auckland, who posted to the "possible trips" page in this Wiki. Nick's post is the anchor for scheduling this trip. I'll be down in February, after everyone has returned from holidays. Exact dates will be set in the next few days; however expect it will be a two-week block of time. If you want us to visit your user group, school, company, or whatever, please edit this page. Be certain to include contact info, and also email evangelists at amazon dot com in order to make certain we confirm. -

Hey Mike, thanks for taking the time to talk to us in Sydney this morning. I <a href="http://idiots.blogspot.com/2008/02/amazons-big-billing-problem.html" target="_blank">blogged a little about you FYI</a>. Hope you're able to carry the message home re: billing overseas users in local currency, would be a great one to solve.
Cheers! - alan |
