Received a tweet the Sprint booth was giving a 'free phone' (reported to be blackberry) to attendees with 'CIO in the title of their badge. Any votes for the 'coolest' or 'most desirable' vendor bling? Thanks for the PAR-TAE! Does it seem like the give-away ‘bling’ from the vendors is alot less sparkley this year?
