Attendance appears to be high
The 2011 Macworld Expo brought a modest increase in exhibitor numbers since the 2010 show, but many people were waiting to see the crowd sizes before gauging the show's success. The lobby of Moscone West was packed with attendees waiting to get in on Thursday morning, making for a show that became more and more crowded through the week. By Saturday morning, it became difficult to wade through the packed halls. MacNN put together a gallery of images from some of the interesting sights at the expo.

Show flloor in North Hall
We have some photos from the show floor in North Hall. The hit of the day was the Pulse Smartpen, a pen capable of recording audio, writing and drawings on specialized paper, then redrawing it on a desktop application. The smartpen won a best of show award. Cases from Incipio, which also won a best of show, were popular and Topaz photo software was attracting attention. iPod accessories and cases were being shown at numerous venders throughout the hall.

Photos: South Hall
We have more Expo showfloor images from the South Hall at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. Crows on the day after the Phil Schiller keynote were heavy, especially at the Axiotron booth, featuring the new 15-inch Modbook. Microsoft, Dr. Bot, Griffin, Roxio and Nikon were getting heavy foot traffic as well. G-Technology (Booth No. 1544 S) had possibly the most unique display on the floor, a G-DRIVE Mini that had survived being run over by a FedEx truck was being used in a semi-crushed state to serve up video for a laptop.
