After writing a blurb for this space describing how none of us are attending E3 this year, I learn that a change in plans has loony actually planning on attending (you'd think I'd know this stuff). Either way, as I originally pointed out, Frans and I skipping the show is good news for readers, since not attending will actually provide a better foothold for reporting on the show's events than being there, as anyone who has had to wait an hour or more at the show to access one of the press computers can verify.
