But this won't change because AVN is overly confident that they hold this market..so there's no reason to make changes. They know you'll follow whatever they decide...and they're right...everyone has.

What i don't understand is why someone like Lensman, Epoch, (hint hint) doesn't see the big opportunity for a new show in Vegas to replace internext...and simply take over the Vegas show. Put it a few weeks after CES and everyone registers to this show instead of internext. Do it right for a change. Easier said then done obviously, but certainly not impossible when you gather a few of a the bigger players and pull together all their marketing power and resources.

Overall, my experience was ok. Aside from Mandalay having terrible customer service and the unacceptable showroom lines, i enjoyed myself..so that was cool.
he second someone thinks they are untouchable - they arn't.

I agree AVN really needs to work on the lines and the time frame. I see no reason what so ever to have to pay higher flight costs cause of CES and new years eve and holiday vacation people flying home- no possibility of extending my room in vegas and 2 hour can line ups cause of CES. 2 weeks later and everyone gets their upgrades on their flights at 1/2 the cost. Rooms are cheaper and you can do anything cause vegas isn't PACKED. I can even get a direct flight if it's a week later - can't do it that the time internext is cause it's too close to the holiday season.

AVN has listened in the past - this is a big one, and i HOPE they do listen up or someone is really gona take this from them and there won't be anything they can do about it.
