While at the opening reception one of the other vendors commented on the fact that I had two cameras hanging off my arm and a usb drive hanging from out of my pocket (on a retractable cord nonetheless).  The vendor asked “how many electronics do you carry on you anyway?!” So, we proceeded to take inventory of all the electronics I happened to be carrying on me at the time.  Final inventory:-1 Canon SD850 camera (not pictured as it’s doing the picture taking, duh.)-1 Flip Video camera (newest toy)-1 iPod (for playing music at our booth)-1 Treo phone-1 16G USB drive (great to have on hand for constantly transferring files between laptops)And… they proceeded to make fun of my and call me ‘gadget girl’ (okay, fine - I might have prompted them a bit on the nickname).  In a trade show full of non-techies, I am happy to be the nerd of the group. :)  Just don’t ask me to help you with your computer.
BTW, I love the Flip video camera, so cute.  We’re giving them away at the show so I am evangelizing them by taking video all around the trade show and doing weird video interviews with people.  The only problem is the fact that I also end up carrying around my Canon camera for the still shots - hence the two cameras constantly hanging off my arm.
