HTC,
     

Did you guys ever consider promoting AHII at E3 if it was in your time frame?

The amount of money it would take to get a booth at E3 would probably be better served if used to further develop AH II.  E3 is not cheap.  I remember when I was at CH Products we had a booth at the '98 E3 and it cost us close to $250,000  The next year when I was at Mad Catz, our cost to show at E3 was close to the million dollar mark.  Of course we had one of the larger booths and Mario Andretti as our spokesperson but E3 is still very expensive if you want a booth on the main show floor.   Companies like Sony and Nintendo spend multi-millions on their booths on the main show floor.  E3 is definitly not an inexpensive affair and the money doesn't end at your booth, companies will spend just as much on their party as they will on their booth.
