I just looked on Google Maps and saw it was in Oakland, right next to Berkeley. I also Googled and apparently it's also in Berkeley (might just be because it's right next to Berkeley). But it's in the general area afaik.

Hmm, Thats possibly the place that said will call me back tonight then... I'll let u know what they say when they call me back, if its even a semi decent deal I say we just do it there then, Seems like Berkeley is the HUB of Tl.net. How many people are goin? I may have to reserve spots
EDIT: I'll see if I can get us some sort of group deal for bringing X amount of people

20+ people will almost definitely be there.
Most likely we'll have about 30.
If we're lucky we'll have maybe even 40+. You can check my list on the bottom of the first page.
These are all just estimations/guesses though...

I've never seen an Internet cafe in Berkeley, and i don't think there are any.

The one mentioned on telegraph would be a few miles down in Oakland, so too far to walk if that makes a difference for anyone.

Ok heres the update about the lan in Oakland
The guy at first told me we can only use 14 computers to allow his daily customers access... I told him with the amount of people were bringing this is not acceptable so basically he kind of wants a downpayment to reserve the space I think, His English is so bad T_T(if anyone knows korean now is the time to jump in and help me out) So What I need is a date, DO you guys want Friday the 21st, Saturday the 22nd, or Sunday the 23rd... He will not let us take 2/3 days... It seems he doesn't want to make more money for his business lol. But he is going to call me back later tonight with a translator So I'm putting a poll for what day everyone wants best
this is $20 for 10 hours
he is open from 11am to 2am

Poll: What day do you want the norcal lan in Oakland?
(Vote): Friday the 21st
(Vote): Saturday the 22nd
(Vote): Sunday the 23rd

Telegraph is hm... the main street in south Berkeley? Most of our food places are on it [Fat slice, Blondies, Crepes a gogo, Smart Alec's, Chipotle, Subway, w/e]

Not sure if there's a telegraph in SF. There most likely is. Dono which they're referring to then

I won't vote - I can do all three days. I'd prefer a Friday because my bro could go... but then LR doesn't want that so Saturday works too. Sunday also works although I'd not like it to be too late because I'd have school the next day.

OK more news on the oakland/Berkeley LAN
They called me back and said if we go... no matter if we bring 1-40 people he can only allow us to use 14 computers... He says he has people that come every day and he will not let us Rent his whole place out for our event... He said we can use the San Francisco place and if we do that He'll let us use 20 computer... So do you guys want to use the SF place...The San Mateo place or keep looking for another venue?

Yes, LR goes to Berkeley. I think he's a freshman, dunno though. Dwinelle is a campus building - apparently clubs can reserve rooms in it for free. Last year we had a LAN in Dwinelle.
