As usual lots of nice rigs, but nothing major or exciting even the choice HD DVD and Blu-ray players were limited. Though there were a few good bargains, there was nothing spectacular. However, I was disappointed that an event with a tagline "TAKING YOU INTO A NEW ERA OF HIGH DEFINITION DVD AND BLURAY DISC" to have totally not a single HD DVD or Blu-ray disc/software on sale, only the usual limited choice CDs, DVDs and vinyls.

Though I fully agree that we are not ready, its just that, with a tag line of bringing an era HD DVD and Blu-ray disc as stipulated on their website, I feel its just not going the full mile, even with the limited HD players and displays there and it might give people a wrong impression. Well maybe, it could be just me, as I thought i could get some reasonably priced Blu-ray and HD DVDs there. So its' back to online ordering for me.

Also I too feel the lack of any door gift, enough "nice and lively" promoters, drop in major exhibitors and audiophile vendors makes this year's event rather "quiet". I have been to nearly all the previous events, since the very 1st one at the Legend Hotel and this is by far the "quietest". Lucky there is still the obligatory contest with prizes left.

However I still do hope for a good turn out and for another the next year icon_rolleyes.gif!
