I agree that you can't do anything if your raw demand is too high. But I think free hardware creates artificial demand, where some people are there just to get the hardware, and other people are there because the hardware makes the financials a bit easier to swallow.
Personally, I don't own an Android device, but I'd probably sign up if I lived in the area. It would be fun and I'd probably break even so why not?
- sethist 14y agoWhat further exasperates the issue is the free hardware is often be kept by an individual while the ticket price is paid by their employer.
- benatkin 14y agoYes...this was noticeable even though I don't care much about Google I/O. Last year I saw someone I follow on twitter announce that he had a ticket and it became quite obvious to me that he's a swagster. Great guy but not one of the people whom I think would add the most value to a developer conference. :)
