Red face Spreading BLU Awareness to Fellow Consumers (Take a few mins of your time)

If I am ever at a Walmart, Bestbuy, Circuit City, Target or Bluray-stocking stores, I take the time to look at their Bluray movie and player selection, sometimes even put the right movies together, make endcaps look nice, and almost everytime I strike a conversation with anyone look at BLURAY or HDDVD movies or players.

The latest of my deeds is correcting some store tags for bluray players. I was at Walmart where they have the new HDNA Sony display, ofcourse without an actual TV to show its BLU goodness, anyways the steep $499 price tag (not walmart friendly) did not list the "5 Free BluRay movies via mail" fact. It stated the technical specs, but nothing about this whole set up had a "5 free BD movies by mail". So I took the tag off and legibly wrote another bullited item below the printed specs "Get 5 FREE BLURAY MOVIES BY MAIL - With Purchase of ANY BLURAY Player"


Those are the little things we can do to help, no one is asking you to get overly obessesd and have no life....but whenever you're at an electronics store, take a couple of minutes to stop by the BLU section and make sure everything is in order, it will only take a couple of minutes, I know if we all do this, we can help with BLURAY hardware and movie sales! I bet you somone at that Walmart store, read the altered tag on that Sony BD player and picked one up!

I know some will say you are a fanatic, but I think that is a great idea. The more real info and the more FUD we dispell the better.

someone go to www.CafePress.com

How about one of us with some reall graphical/Photoshop talent make some cool high resolutionT-Shirt Logos? and post them somewhere? Maybe even sopmething funny where BLURAY's Big Foot Stumping on a poor red HDDVD ant...I dunno just being funny


Has anyone been to www.CafePress.com? You can make your own shirts and sell them. Maybe this forum can create a CafePress account (FREE) and sell the shirts at the bottom line Cafe Press cost? They have Polo Shirts, Black T-shirts, colored shirts, hats, beanies, even girl thongs!!!
