Couch in Santa Clara, CA for approx. 23-28 April 2006

I'm posting this here because I haven't much response in other places that I've targeted.
I'm attending the MySQL Users Conference to run the phpMyAdmin booth this year, and I'm looking for somebody with a couch or spare space that I can crash at.

The conference is 24-27 April 2006, in Santa Clara, California, at the "Santa Clara Convention Center".
Conference website: http://www.mysqluc.com/.

I'm trying to find a cheap flight that will get me there on April 22nd/23rd, and leave on the 28th.

Alternatively, for those on my friends list in that area, do you know of any cheap hotels close to the convention center? (Under $50USD/night).
