finally im back from termium, pleasant experience for technology entusiasts but for me its a big disapointment and its nothing compared to the 2004 and 2005 termium expos, bas dont take my word for it, i encourage everyone to go there and see for yourselves.
2004 was THE TERMIUM, 2008 is not bad but kind of a smaller exhibition . oh and the shopping place is soooo small and out of bargains. but u can find interesting stuff concerning GPS and dsl .
