I made it to the hotel and checked into the conference. San Francisco is crazy busy right now with tourists.

The hotel is really nice. It is a lot closer walk than last year. I don't have to walk up a big hill. Although I kind of miss that in some ways.

Free stuff for conference attendees.

• A shirt with iPhone icons that spell out WWDC 2009
• Laptop backpack.

The laptop backpack looks to fit a 15", but not a 17". It looked cheap until I got my hands on one. I'll actually probably use it for the conference since it is a bit more streamlined than the laptop case from last year.
