As we do every year, we carefully track attendance trends for our annual technology conference, OPNETWORK. Based on sign-up trends, and after surveying our customer base, we have determined that conference attendance this year will be significantly affected by travel restrictions due to the difficult economic climate. As a result, we have decided not to hold OPNETWORK in its usual format and location this year. OPNETWORK is an event we and our customers all look forward to each year, so this decision is a difficult one. However, because of the exceptional circumstances, we believe it makes sense for OPNET to explore alternatives for 2009, such as virtual classes, virtual user-group sessions, and regional meetings. Please stay tuned for announcements regarding alternative meeting plans, and we look forward to your participation.
We apologize for any inconvenience related to this change of plans.
