True enough. Also I was venting there because I'm in the DC Metro area and have missed the last two (Fort Wayne) DDXPs.
I hear ya...At least you've gone. I live in Canada and have yet to go to a Con of any type. I'll make it one of these days.

Not so sure about the "review process heavy" given some of the WotC staff have twittered (tweeted?) about needing to finish their articles that were going to be posted the following day. Hopefully that's more for the DDI "columns" than their crunch-heavy features, but I was shocked when I saw more than one of them talking about writing a DDI post the night before. Definitely a change from the several month time frame of the old print magazines! (even excluding print and distribution time)also DDI is very "static" and "review process heavy" (which is a good thing) so it's hard for them to just post stuff "on the fly" there.
You mean kind of like the 6-month advance info on PHB3 content that doesn't even require you to be at DDXP?
(I'm agreeing with you, just wanted to draw attention to the fact that they are kind of doing something like this already, just not specifically for DDXP which, as you said, is more of a marketting tool --- also DDI is very "static" and "review process heavy" (which is a good thing) so it's hard for them to just post stuff "on the fly" there. That's why they have their DD twitter, for informal announcements.. I'm sure their website will get updated with a summary later on.
I can empathize with you. I've never had the chance to attend a major gaming Convention. I've only recently heard of a SciFi & Fantasy festival in Edmonton called Pure Speculation, which is held every October. I didn't learn about it until it was already over for 2009, but I'm eager to experience it in 2010.I hear ya...At least you've gone. I live in Canada and have yet to go to a Con of any type.

mwahahaha.as far as i can recall from the seminar, cloakers were the only mm3 monster mentioned.
oh lordy what is going on with the miniatures lately
This is the 3rd or 4th big change up in the production of the figures in the past 2-3 years.
I fear Orcus will be handled like the Heroclix Bricks. Buy a case, get a certificate. Pay for Shipping & Handling (buncha money). Works for them.
Ultra Rare figures is what made me quit Heroclix.
I guess I need to just wait and see what the product becomes once the dust settles. Too much uncertainity still.
Well, from the cover, I can guess one of them ...What else, what else? Maybe some of the preview games have MM3 monsters in them? Anyone got any clues?
