The BOOT EXPO in Duesseldorf, Germany is taking place from 18.01.2003 - 26.01.2003. It is a great water-sports exhibition with a complete sector for the diving industry. As many divers gather there every year, we would like to organize a digideep usermeeting 2003.

Please share your schedule and ideas with others in this thread and tell us with your vote on which day you plan to visit the Boot 2003.

Please consider that the best day for getting great shopping discounts will be on Sunday, 26.01.2003 in the last two hours before closing time.

:arrow: Hope to meetchu there .oOo. Andi

Voted for 26, but not sure, will be there though !

CU, Harald
The Netherlands.

Most likely date for me is 23rd also .... surprised !

I voted for 23rd .... I am in the UK over these dates so I will try my hardest to come to the EXPO, however I am spending lots of money already .. and may not be able to afford to come over ... maybe a quick drive .. always wanted to test out those autobaums (excuse the spelling) would require a special car for the journey ... humm .. now my mind is thinking!

PS I won’t know for sure until I am backhome ...

To Adi: “for getting great shopping discounts”
You may be right but there are discounts from the beginning and the most wanted discound may be sold out at the end. :!:
So I voted for 25

Anyway I like your idea too meet other digital underwater photographers.
I hope we get enough response.

Hi everyone !

i could not vote for a day because Andi’s calendar is a little bit confusing.
No Thursday and three times the 20.01. :?
I think i will visit the “Boot 2003” on Thursday, 23.01.2002. And of course, if any member of this board will visit the expo on Sunday i will also be there.

I talked to Andreas from multimedia-online.ch and suggested his booth on the “Boot 2003” as a meeting point for us. It will be hall 3, booth H23.

Maybe some of you arrive on Saturday and would like to go for a beer. Please feel free to send me an e-mail to meet outside the Expo.

And if anyone needs a room here is the right place to look for it :

Greetings from Duesseldorf

Hi Udo, you were the only one to recognize the mistake
Sorry, but I just fixed it. I think many of us will be there on
Saturday. For me I plan to spend the whole 2nd Weekend
on BOOT and do some shopping in the last two hours.

The discounts really get better in the last 2 hours :twisted:

Andi

I’d love to see you all at BOOT - but it’s a bit of a hike from the States!

Enjoy the show - I look forward to hearing about it from many of our colleagues.

Hi to all from Duesseldorf

most likely we will visit the BOOT on Friday, January 24 2003.

However, as we are living in Duesseldorf we should really try to meet for some discussion (and of course some beers...) outside of the exposition.

Let’s try to find a common date!

Dirk
:D

little annoyed .. i was looking forward to going (not spending the money though )

I am in the UK .. but my dates changed .. and I now have surgery the during that period .. so I doub i’ll make it.

Someon let me know what happens .. any new annoucements .. and if your daring steal me a housing for my D60

Hi everyone !

Here is my suggestion for a meeting outside the expo.

Date: Saturday, 25.01.2003 19.00 p.m.
Location: “Laternchen”, Kölner Str. 220, 40227 Düsseldorf
Description: Nice little Pub. German Food. Schumacher Alt :wink:
Where:  Located near central station. From Expo take U79 to central Station. Then take U74 to Subwaystation “Oberbilker Markt” (Direction Holthausen).

It would be nice to get a reply from anyone who would like to meet there.
Because of limited seats a reservation is required. So please send me an e-mail until Thursday.

See you.

Udo

Hi Udo!

I’ll be there… My first day on the EXPO will be Friday. I am looking forward to meet you all… Also I’d like to encourage everyone to bring some digital photos with them (on print).

Hi Andi !

See you on Saturday.
Be sure to wear Mask and Hood so we can identify each other :D

Udo

Hi Everyone,

I just digged out this very old thread from our forums Archive.
I cannot imagine what happened during the last 5 years.

DIGIDEEP has taken over our lives and that is why we would
love to meet you on BOOT SHOW if you are around. Here is
some info and dates in German.

PS: Lars and I throw a bunch of Beers for everybody who shows up.
