I'm going. I just live 100 miles north of Orlando.I'll be staying with my folks, so I'm not very familiar with area accomodations. I do note from Motel 6's web site that the International Drive branch, which isn't too far away, will be charging $40 per night and seems to have vacancies. Within walking distance of the conference, the room prices are probably pretty steep. I believe that's the luxury hotel district. Please note the Showeast thread in "Ground Level" forum. This is the first time I've gone, so if any veterans have advice on getting the most out of the show, I'm all ears. (Incidentally, I find a lot of Orlando disgustingly plastic, but there are nice things there if one puts in the time to find them. If you're also the type that likes pleasant places to walk and eat, rather than the stuffiness of luxury hotels, or generic tourist traps, then I recommend going to Winter Park, a town in the Orlando metro area. Some places there are terribly expensive but others are cheap and still good quality. That's only an option if you want to get away for a few hours. Orlando traffic is not to be underestimated. If you're looking for an incredible show (without film) and are willing to spend a lot of money, I think the Cirque du Soleil show is mindblowing. The $72 price is a little mindblowing, but the show is much more mindblowing. And I almost never shell out for expensive things. Cirque du Soleil is adjacent to the AMC Pleasure Island 24 cinema where our screenings will be.) URL: http://www.showeast.com/
