ANNOUNCE: Defcon Wifi Shootout Contest, Sponsors, Prizes!
Once again, wifi enthusiasts from around the globe will gather in Las Vegas, Nevada, July 30 - August 1, 2004, to pit their geeky skills against one another in the 2nd Annual Defcon Wifi Shootout Contest. The goal of the contest is simple: to achieve the greatest possible connect distance between two 802.11b stations through innovative engineering and antenna design. Held in conjunction with the annual Defcon conference, teams will be drawn from the pool of approximately 5000 Defcon attendees to see whose wifi reigns supreme! Spectacular prizes and fun are available to all who participate.
We have a super line-up of sponsors this year, which means we will have a super line-up of prizes to award to those brave enough to compete and win! We are pleased to announce the addition of our latest premier sponsor:
