On October 26, there is also an OF Symposium that you might want to watch. It is being hosted by PacketPushers (http://packetpushers.net/) and TechFieldDay (http://techfieldday.com). The format will be more of a debate style. The panel includes Cisco, Juniper, Google, Yahoo, NEC, Big Switch, and Stanford. Details for the event are here: http://techfieldday.com/2011/openflow-symposium/

Full disclosure: I am a Juniper employee, so we are an event participant. But I figured if you wanted to start to see how the HW vendors in this space view a technology that changes how the network is monetized, you might want to attend the event yourself.
