I loved it...
And yes, the presentations will be online usually only for a week or so (I think they said they will be up this week). Then they take them down... so get them while you can... If you go to the WES, people who post their presentations up early - have them available online from the Cyber Zone at the conference. You just have to take a USB key to save them to... and some of the machines I went to were "locked down" in XP preventing you from saving... but I tried another PC which was not locked down and snagged some...
I usually find the WES (I've been to all but the first) worth it more for the contacts and few conversations I have with fellow BES admins than the actual material... This year was great because not only did they have some GREAT content (anything done by Carl Cherry is worth attending), but I was able to attend some NICE meetings, and meet some people I had only emailed with...
If you have a large install and are doing progressive stuff, ask your account manager if you can get on the BEC (BlackBerry Extensibility Council). The meeting for that Monday was very nice... and once it broke up into smaller groups, you could really make your concerns know to the RIM people who could make changes (my biggest beef is not being able to see real time user stats in the BES 4.1 console).
Anyway, it was a good conference, and one kick butt hotel! Holy cow!
I had fun, and as always, learned a lot! (you can learn lots just by talking to the people at your lunch table...)
Only problem is, I now have a HUGE "TO DO" list when I get to work Monday...
