New York Area AVS Forum Insider Meeting

8786 Views 157 Replies 56 Participants Last post by  DTV TiVo Dealer
OK, this one has short notice so I apologize for it in advance. Thanks to Robert from Value Electronics, we can meet at his store in Scarsdale, NY this coming Wednesday. We will be starting at 7:00pm to give everyone time to come from different areas. We will go until 9:00pm or until the last person leaves :). I will be there together with Kevin Collins. We will provide snacks so that you won’t starve :). We can take up to 15 people.


For those people seeing this for the first time, you will be meeting with me, and other HD DVD insiders from Microsoft. We will be answering questions and showing cool HD DVD titles and explaining the technology behind them.


I will be posting more details on Monday. But would be great to know between now and then to know what the interest level is in attending as I am flying out just for this event (unfortunately, can not stay for Digital Life on the weekend).


So please post here if you are willing to come.

I'll be there I think. Whats the address? And is there any chance of seeing the 360 drive in action?
Great. Here is the address:


********************* Inc.

108 Garth Road

Scarsdale, NY 10583
Oh, on 360, I am not sure. We had one last night at the Seattle meet and played a bunch of movies using it. I will see if we can get one there.
Unless someone can pick me up, not a chance in hell I could make it there from NYC. :( I have a feeling that's going to be the case for a lot of people from here.
Yup, very doubtful that i can make it there from NYC. Thanks for the offer though...sounds like it will be an informative evening. Maybe we can have a NYC insider meeting sometime.
OK, I am pushing one more time to see if we can be at Javits center. So for now, it would be great to know the level of interest for either venue.

There is always Metro North. A scheduled 27 minute train ride from Grand Central to Scarsdale, the 6:14PM arrives at 6:41PM.


For the return, there is a 9:12PM train that gets to Grand Central at 9:55PM.
If it's in NYC, I'll definitely be there, without question.


The train is a nice idea but with that AND cab fare to the place (if it's not within walking distance), it's kinda not worth it...unless Amir is going to throw in a free HD DVD or something. ;)
I would like to attend a possible Javits Center meeting.
Trust me, you don't want to miss it, even if you have to travel at bit.


Amir said it's an INSIDER meeting and it is. I was able to make the Seattle one last night and am very glad I did. Whether you are interested in HD DVD, BD or just HD you will learn a lot about this emerging technology.
I just saw you out in Denver, but I could see you in Scarsdale if you have room. I just ordered some equipment form Robert and I could pick it up at the same time!


I would also drive into the city, and pick up some bagels on my way out.


I also am planning to attend the digital life event at the Javits Center.
Barring some unexpected occurence, I will be there! I have met Robert already (GREAT GUY!), and of course I would love to meet you, Amir (and see all there is to see!!!),


Kris
Hello all...If there is room for another, I would love to come...I haven't been out to Robert's store (he's the best) since I picked up my XA-1 from him back in April & I would really like to meet Amir...


~Vince Capone
Any chance of doing this in Minneapolis?
Since I'll be driving from Danbury CT to NJ that evening, the timing is perfect for me whether it is at Robert's Place or somewhere else. If there is room available I would love to be there..

Any chance of you swinging by Maryland, DC, N. Virginia for a similar presentation to us down here on this trip??

Will do either location but of course the Big City is first choice.

My store is on the same street as the Metro North Scarsdale station, which is a 3 minute walk to the ********************* store.
