""I love your product if you only offered x", does not necessarily mean they are not a real buyer. That is an objection that needs to be overcome with the benefits of the core product offering. Now, if the decision maker does not see value in the core value offering, then the product does not meet the buyer's needs, and therefore, no sale. From my earliest days in sales out of college we learned to "sell what is in stock". Sometimes it is the failure of the salesperson for not driving home the features/advantages/benefits, not the buyer for wanting a feature of perceived value."

"Robert, you are quite a prodigious consumer of new tech. I've always wondered how you were able to keep up with it. I look at my boys, and they have become quite adroit at the new and evolving tech that can influence how they work with media. Perhaps it is just the course of human events that the next wave of innovation will need to be tracked by others that are less encumbered?"

"Get ready for CoD: micro-transactions. Per the earnings call: "We're developing a free-to-play micro-transaction based Call of Duty title for the exploding market in China. This effort, although not slated for this year, has tremendous potential in its own right, but will also offer learnings that we can use throughout our organization." - Hirshberg"

MMOs come to the consoles with Outso's Sodium One. Enter in through Playstation Home and engage in a 50-level combat arena of hover tanks on a salt-plain. Free-to-play with micro-transactions. Curious when we will see MMOs extend to Xbox Live and perhaps even Wii's Miis...

The SurfaceScapes team at the Entertainment Technology Center at Carnegie Mellon bring D&D into the 21st century with a next gen sand table concept. Very interested to see how this is developed in the future. Conventional board games could even work within this concept.
