I have never been but was thinking about going this time. I only do LPR and I don't see much at this convention that deals with LPR, are they even having a launch? Is it worth going for a LPR?

It's a convention. Don't go for the launch. Go for the lectures. Some like to schmooze at the banquet, but the other times are the ones I liked best.

Yep, I am out of state so that is why I am asking. I notice Estes is not going to be there in the vender section, that is a bummer.
