Ah, BYOC wired?  Yeah, that sounds like it could be worth the minimal
trouble and expense.  +1 if it doesn't interfere with the APs
(physically - I'm thinking of the description of them just sitting on
chairs in Dallas, if I got that right.  this can probably be managed,
at least for some locations.  bigger issue might well be all those
cables underfoot, so some AP sites might be unsuitably near traffic
lanes.)

/me adds that he's quite the disinterested party, as he expects not to
be able to see much if any of Chi-Pycon due to schedule conficts.  :-(
