special report: LONDON CALLING (VOICE-OVER IP)

What if you could get 700,000 square feet of exhibit space and a 38,750-square-foot conference center, mostly on one level, designed for roll-in, roll-out truck service? What if this venue had a multi-gigabit capacity Fast Ethernet network? What if it were in the snazziest new neighborhood in London? That's ExCel, the brand-spanking new (opened November 2000) exhibition center/conference center, located on the Royal Victoria Wharf in London's trendy Docklands area.
