I am scheduled to go as well. Maybe we could setup a time to swarm the AMX booth or something?
Anyone have any interest in meeting to discuss programming techniques, trends or client requests? Maybe we could share some of the requests we hear and see if anyone else is hearing the same things. We could also share solutions to the requests if we have them It might be a little easier to discuss slightly more sensitive business practices when talking with only a select few dealers and not having things saved forever on the internet and open to everyone
I would love to go and meet some of my heroes - Anyone gonna wear a cape? J/K. Unfortunately that's right in the middle of our scheduled vacation. Yeah, I know, poor me.
I've never been to Infocomm. In the past I was always way too busy, but sadly that's not the case this year. Is it worth going to (besides getting to meet up with some great forum friends)?

Infocomm is the big show for pro A/V. If you're not a good time manager and/or you have ADD, your head might explode.
Anyone from the Midwest, look me up. I would be happy to say hi. For the ACE Experts attending InfoComm, you should have received an invitation for a pre-show special event on Tuesday evening.
I got the notice about the pre-show party, unfortunately I already booked the trip and I won't be flying out until Wednesday morning I am staying a little longer tho for a day of vacation
Would love to get an AMX programmers' meetup together outside of the AMX sponsored events. How does Thursday afternoon (toward the end of show close) sound? We can meet up at the Convention Center and figure out the details from there.
We will be there Tues-Fri. Meeting toward the close of the exhibition one day sounds good. Maybe we could compile mobile email addresses to keep in touch as the show begins.
I of course will not be going unless someone wants to take over my job for a few day. Six years in the industry, and not one trade show yet. Maybe I'm just working for the wrong people - LOL! (J/K)
Anyone have any "speculations" as to what will be announced?
Hmmm, MVP 9000i. A big brother for the 5200i's and in the same style and appearance. Of course a matte finish has been requested since the release of the 5200's but it's still a vast improvement over the 8400's in appearance. The price is the same as the 8400 so not much improvement on that front. Nothing else of interest released from my point of view.
Re 9000i, highly unimpressive. Capacitive nav alone kills it for me, not to mention AMX still (likely) violates the GPL with its release and a mediocre, low res display panel used. Bah.

I might be able to help you with half a paddle. All you'll need is a boat and the other half of the paddle.

I will try to stop by the demo center tho.

Ironically, a good place to meet up is usually at the CAIP UI Booth. It's typically in middle of a main lobby floor and is an easy landmark to find.

@True, I thought you were in San Diego?

Anyone there care to elaborate as to what's going on? No press releases as of yet, so I'm dying to hear something!

The display the 9000 sports is 24-bit, which is a plus.
Very true. (pun partially intended.)
And I would call this impressive if this was 2001. It's 2010.
On another note, isn't there supposed to be a meet-up of some sort?
