I'm not going to the conference, but I can recommend a good hotel/casino that is on the strip near Circus Circus.
Go to
http://www.westwardho.com/ and check out the prices during that period. It looks like you would be paying around $350.00 for 5 days.
I used Map Point to check, and it looks like the DevCon hotel is about 11-12 miles away from this part of the strip.

>today I got a message from Advisor that the main conference hotel is sold out for Wednesday... Unfortunately, I'm arriving already on Thuesday 28th. They now added another hotel, thus I would have to stay at the Las Vegas Marriott Suites for the first two days, and would then have to change hotel on Thursday morning 06:00
