So, could someone record it and release it here?

No, it contains confidential information available to authorized retailers. If you want to see the whole thing you have to become a retailer. If you want to get the scoop, you have to read Scott's recap. He leaves out the retailer-only parts.

Fine. confidential information? hmmm... OKAY! lol Again, I can not stand reading everyone's comments. I want the facts right from the horse's mouth! (even though, I find Charlie VERY VERY annoying)

No as the broadcasts are not for public. I am very careful with what I post from the chats due to the sensitive nature of the chats.

I only report the information which you could find out by talking to a retailer who watched the chat (and by asking them whats new and whats coming) but there is to much dealer sensitive information on the chats that the majority of it is not for public consumption.

Amazing what they have available out there

. I plan to hook up a laptop soon to our main tv to see how it looks.

It sucks compared to Apple TV, do you really expect a PC with adobe flash to produce a good picture with good frame rates?

If they do allow HD Absolute to stay grandfathered I doubt they could leave the price the same after raising the newer HD packages so much. It would be nice if they would just tell us what they are going to do with it.

4) Let's use the bronze,silver,gold branding so we don't have to use number's - most people are scared of numbers mixed with technology. It also adds consistency and is easier to understand since most people are familiar with olympic medals - some people might not understand that 100 is less than 250.
5) Let's get rid of numbered reciever's since people who understand number's will be confused why the 211 is better than the 311, which is better than the 3700.

Makes sense, cable usually calls analog only service "Classic" , I'm ok with them getting rid of model numbers only if they still have model numbers somewhere on the box and just don't use it in marketing. Apple ditched model numbers years ago and it sucks trying to figure out what part fits what model.

Ouch... A little harsh...

Man Scott, I guess you need to stop 'running your mouth', because it sounds like this guy is about to punch you square in the nuts...
