ITEC 2004 currency

[dwaskew]

I know many (most) who use this board are not going to ITEC 2004 in Budapest next week, however, for those who are, some advice from Jason Smith, who's already over there: Don't stock up on Euros. The primary currency is still the Forint, and most restaurants, coffee shops, bars, taxis, etc. still don't take Euros. Apparently most hotels do, but that's more the exception than the rule.

For those going, safe travels.
