Much of last years wikimedia conference in India was without WiFi, we had to talk to each other instead. I think the lack of WiFi made it a better conference and would suggest for future events that we pick one or two lounge areas where we don't even try to get WiFi working.

I always do wonder, when I attend WM events and most people are fiddling around with their laptops instead of paying attention to the speaker, exactly how different things would be if we tried banning computers from one of our events for a day.
Not going to happen, but nice to think about ;-)
Just like there's an adult swim at pools, an "Analog Day" at Wikimania would be fascinating.
Actually, the final beach party last year in Israel was very water-oriented, food-laden, and analog. :)
