["Hargin, Bill" <bill_hargin@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All:

Each year, Mentor Graphics users get together in San Jose for Mentor's
annual User2User event.  This coming year, it's March 13-15.  If you
would like to submit a short abstract to be considered as a presenter
for the High-Speed Track*, the deadline is November 13, and the details
are provided below.

It's a great way to compare notes with other high-speed designers, and
to learn from some of the industry's top engineers.  Among multiple
solution-focused presentations this year, the program will include a
presentation by Dr. Eric Bogatin, author of "Signal Integrity
Simplified," called "No Myths Allowed: Debunking Popular Myths in Signal
Integrity."

I hope to see a few of you there, and here's some more info, if you'd
like to submit an abstract.

New Abstract Submission Deadline: November 13, 2006

You are invited to share your technical expertise with other engineers
and designers at User2User 2007. The primary goal of our
highly-interactive, in-depth user conference is to deliver immediately
useful technical knowledge. We encourage you to submit an abstract for a
presentation that helps other Mentor users from around the world
understand your best practices, innovative design solutions, and success
stories.=20

Submit your abstract by Monday, November 13, 2006, and receive a special
edition t-shirt, plus the chance to win one of three very cool prizes
sponsored by HP. Also, if your abstract is selected for the conference
you will receive free registration to User2User 2007, a special
appreciation speaker gift and an opportunity to win a $1,000 USD award
for the Best Paper.

If you have any additional questions please feel free to contact Jen
