It could potentially look like a bistro, and harness the awesome power of the math involved.

I was hoping more for a hotdog cart with an espresso machine, but bistro will work.

NGP and Gears of War 3 coverage are about all I need to see.

Unfortunately, the Nintendo conference is on the one day I absolutely cannot skip out on.

I just realized I'll be in Vegas during E3. I'll be flying during the Microsoft conference, doing something with my family during Sony, so all that leaves is Nintendo, which I'm not going to bring my laptop for (I wouldn't bring it otherwise), I'll just check the text updates on my phone.

To what, enter into the E3 conference? I think it's closed off to the general public. It's mostly for people in the industry be them owners of prominent websites or writers for gaming magazines.
No, they only had it closed off to the public for 2007 and 2008. It's been public again since 2009. Everyone is welcome to buy tickets... until they're sold out that is.

I don't work until Wednesday so I'll be watching the live streams of Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony for sure. Possibly the others as well. Sony is going to be so embarrassing this year (They were also terrible last year lol). The only thing I want to see is Kevin Butler's speech. I think I'm most interested in Nintendo this year, I hope this new console they're showing off will bring me the feeling of epic Nintendo nostalgia.
