Red guys,

What days will you be presenting the big news? I need to book my hotel..

The 1st day...

Jim
 
yes...

Jim
 
So Jim, do you have big, surprising announcements or is the big news to the industry that you did ship? Either way I'll be there at your booth on that Monday!
 
new news... although we will have more credibility if we are shipping RED ONEs

Newer news would be news to us.:p Could one of the tricks up your collective sleeve be RED Primes? Oh well, half the fun is the speculation and anticipation. I am just glad to hear from you guys from time to time while you are in the deep guts of the development. I really do not see how you guys do it, but I am glad you do.
 
Andrew, I'd say this statement unveils a lot...Jim's confidence!!! Tonight I'll sleep very very well, Mr. James Jannard. Thanks!

He he heh, as you know Emanuel, my immediate future is in the hands of the RED Team (but aren't we all!). I am realistically confident in their endeavors and working hard to raise my game on all fronts in the mean time.
 
All my money will be addressed to RED and to accessorize it! I left other routes away. And with me, there are still more three professionals since last April 25th. Giving all our hopes in this bet -- my fault, I should confess. And my belief beyond my faith too. Ours.
 
I think most on this forum are atuned to what is up...
I still mention RED to my buddies and they are shocked...
Especially the ones that have HDCAM's.....
 
For those that do not like casinos and prefer a more sedate NAB...

My personal favorite is the Alexis Park. www.alexispark.com. No casino suite hotel. But... it's right across from the Hard Rock. So, you can enjoy a quiet evening at the circular bar at The Hard Rock, then heel-toe it back to the hotel.

But - it's a different perspective on the show when you're working it. Demo and meeting-duty working a show-floor booth at NAB is brutal. Nothing quite as challenging as meetings with sober executives at 9AM on the show floor after an ugly night.

This is why ASSIMILATE has suites in the Renaissance for demos... bloody marys and coffee. Lots and lots of coffee.

I'll come from Spain to NAB to see our little girl for real... I've got a couple of questions because I never been there:
Is it enough 2 days to visit NAB?
There will be any other RED presentation/meeting/party after the 1st day?

Thanks a lot!
Ciao Carlo

Carlo,

I've traveled from New Zealand twice for the show. If you can only manage 2 days make it the Wednesday and Thursday. Most of the US visitors hit the show on Monday and Tuesday making for a very crowded event. On Wednesday and especially Thursday the crowds have thinned. On Thursday the booth operators are in better humor too as the end is in sight and are more willing to give a bit more of their time for questions. If you're lucky you can sometimes pickup an item at a Ex Show or demo price.

Don't under estimate the time it takes to get to and from the show.

In your case, why not wait for IBC?
 
If you come all the way from Spain I would go to the entire event. Allows you to adjust and spread the stuff out over multiple days. It's a bit bigger than IBC.

There's enough to do and see in Vegas besides NAB if you want to get away from the show floor!

p.s. flying from Europe to California / Nevada or reverse tends to keep you up for 24 hours, I'm glad if I can stay for a week or two before doing it again :)
 
Sorry guys,

any suggestions for the Hotel in Vegas?
I'm thinking about coming to NAB fo the very first time.

Please, help me...
 
We booked at the Best Western Mardi Gras, just about a 3 minute walk to the Convention Center. Never have stayed there before though, so... :) Nice not to have to worry about a car and parking though!
