Hi Phil,
We are too are predominately Leica because they offer the best training and customer sales. We have been using laser scanning equipment and not once has any other company approached us to demo there kit etc. I find this very odd that other companies like Trimble haven't approached the small user sector. Even when I was at the University of East London the lecturer stated that they had even invited other companies to demo the kit and show the students but no one was interested apart from Leica, who I think saw the potential of letting the students use there kit and software.
Let me know if you do ever get to use different kit as for the conference im not sure as ive only ever been to Geomatics World.
