While this seems exorbitant, and I admit it is expensive, it is not uncommon at convention centers. This offering is not typically for attendees, but for exhibitors. I remember being in charge of a large booth at a trade show in Las Vegas about 15 years ago and we paid $300 for two days use of a single Ethernet drop. They have a captive audience for the most part and have built that revenue into their model. Does it make it right? Probably not, but it depends upon your vantage point.

Is tethering to your cell phone still a big no no in terms of wracking up a data charge and being frowned upon by certain providers?

I remember working as an AT&T rep and had a customer phone in wondering why her bill was simply astronomical and we later found out that her son downloaded the Lord of the Rings trilogy on a standard Data plan.

Or you could just walk outside and not pay.
