I also think that the room they have the keynotes in is all wrong - the audio is very average. I also agree with you in the sense that a few of the presenters rambled on and it would have been a much better format if they had have turned the presentation into a Q&A.

Almost none of the keynotes related so far have imparted anything more than 'I'm here; I'm important; now listen to me.' If something like the expo occurs again, I hope the organizers set aside a Q&A session and prep the bloggers for the expected role of keynoter. This time, all we can expect is some of the CEOs give interviews with journalists so we can gain some insight. Another good idea: prepared remarks that can be distributed or hire a transcription service.
