1. bandwidth for PyCon, and no one else. This is the easiest, but most costly. (20k ish total)
That seems awfully high for a short-term hookup, though from the rest of the email I'm guessing you're mainly looking at wireline hookups. Have you shopped around for a short-term wireless link? If you can get on the roof of the hotel, and the roof of someone else nearby that has more bandwidth, and point a pair of radios at each other, that's probably do-able for far less than 20k. In Chicago, the folks at CW Lab (www.cwlab.com) may be able to get you started. They're more of a consulting firm now, from the looks of their Web site, but they've done things like this before, and they're local to Chicago; if they can't help they probably know someone who can.
