One thing is common to almost every conference I've ever attended, no matter what the topic: there is lots of stuff being given away. Here at Milken there are bags, hats, tons of food, chocolate, notebooks, pens, and even some gadgets. Check out this cellphone charger that BNP Paribas is giving away. It takes a single AA battery and turns that into valuable juice for your failing cellphone battery. In this picture you can see it feeding my Cingular 8125 with a bit of that sweet sweet energy. Only downside to this piece of swag: of the multiple adapters included, there wasn't one for the Treo (which left one of our bloggers, Randall Bennett, very disappointed).
