Coming in late to the party here, but that's great to hear you both will be coming. And we have a couple people who are just starting out. Feel free to come to the Hacky Hour the night before to say hi to some of the people coming. http://startuptucson.com/ai1ec_event/hacky-hour-at-gentle-bens/?instance_id=13721  

In terms of how many people are going, we are unsure. We currently have 14 signed up, and a large number of people who say they are going and haven't registered yet. Our current attendance is probably going to be about 20, but like I said, there may be more!

If you haven't registered yet, please do! http://startuptucson.com/hackathon  

In terms of devices to hack on, I've had my eye on a nexus 7. Those are cool!

> Liz, you might also consider coming to the hacakthon hosted by startup tucson this weekend (http://startuptucson.com/2012/startup-tucson-hackathon-august-10th-11th-at-spoke6/). I believe mobile development is the theme, or at least a theme that will be present at the hackathon. It could be a good opportunity to get a firsthand look at mobile development, try your hand at it, or just chat with other developers in the area working on mobile development.
