Subject: [802.15-GENERAL-LIST] May 2010 IEEE Wireless Interim web
registration now live
Importance: High
Reminder-
It is the New Year so if you have not already done so please do not put off
getting registered for the May 2010 meeting in Beijing. It takes time to get
the invitation letter and apply for a Visa. This is a historic meeting.
You will want to be a part of it.
Regards and Happy New Year
Bob
-------------------------------------------------
The
registration form is now live for the Beijing Meeting, May 2010. The link is
below for your reference,

Thanks to the
significant support on the part of our meeting co-sponsor, SIMIT (Shanghai
Institute of Microsystems Information Technology), we are able to keep the
registration fees for Non Chinese Nationals the same as those for North
American venues. That amounts to a several hundred dollar savings over a
typical Non North American Meeting fee. We are also able to offer special
incentives to Resident Chinese Nationals to encourage participation in this
watershed event.
Please be aware that China Visas are required for most foreigners and an
invitation letter is needed to apply. That letter will be issued by SIMIT
but registration is required to demonstrate participation. The letter process
may take several weeks depending on load and other events. The Visa
application process will take additional time and the need to get passports to
Chinese Embassies for processing. Again it is smart to allow plenty of
time for this. Detailed info is on the web registration site and includes
how traveling companions might also go about getting Visas.
Accommodation bookings are part of the registration process. There is no
deposit required to reserve your room so you might as well do that while you
are registering and secure the lower registration fee.
All questions regarding the meeting logistics, accommodations and registration
issues should be addressed to our meeting managers at arinex (aka Tour Hosts)
at ieee802wireless@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx (NOT Face to Face Events). Please cc me
as well at bheile@xxxxxxxx on any issues/questions.
