I agree with Rick. Who cares if MM is sponsoring the conference? In fact I'd rather they not, so it stays focused solely on CF. Afterall if you want demos of all the MM products go to MAX. This conference is aimed at CF developers. MM is sending a bunch of great speakers so lets be happy with that and not delve deeper in this possibly being a sign of a hostile Microsoft takeover.
