The $150 is for the event itself. Hotel will be extra.
I can only guess at what they will be planning, so here are my two cents. The typical dinner/dances I go to are around $70 for a single evening which includes finger-foods (horsey doovers?), dinner, a decent sized dancefloor, and a professional show/demo. So this is actually a better deal since it could include two dinner/dances (the first casual/semi-formal and the other formal?), siteseeing and whatever else they may decide to throw in.
They may even break up events so you only pay for the events you want to attend. This is good for locals who don't want to pay for a hotel room and the not-so-locals who can only make one or two of the events. I tend to favor doing it as a package deal as I'm in it for the interaction. My experience is that you never know when the best stuff happens. A lot of times it's in between the big events like waiting in line or at that informal powwow you had in your room.
Now all I just gotta figure out is what I'm gonna wear and how I'm gonna do my room. I'm not sure if Bordello or Blue Sun works for me - I'm more a Nuts and Bolts kinda guy. Don't be surprised to see a pilots console or an engine turning over in my room. And don't worry, I won't be shoving any Capissen 38's out the window.

Oh man, I'm glad I have lots of notification as this could be down right expensive (looks like I'm going to need some hospital schematic to pay for this). And i am currently unemployed. Maybe I could find someone to split the cost on a room. I also like the idea of a package deal. I have to figure out my room as well, and my clothes, and everything else...

I have seen the promised land and it's only half an hour from my house!
I have no idea how or where but does anyone have contact info for the Philly people? This is something I wouldn't mind devoting my time to!

Hmm....Detroit to Philly is 442 miles according to Ask Jeeves. So I could drive there in about 7 hours.
But where to get the money...?

When the time gets closer there should be a thread for people looking to split the cost of a hotel room. I don't have anyfriends interested in going.
