Subject: Hot News Alert: MetaTV and Liberate press release announcing certified developer partner status
Importance: High
This release will hit the wires early morning Wednesday 11/29 the first official day of Western Cable.
It is our first release with Liberate and is a preview of more great joint announcements to come with them. We are choosing not to announce our exclusive compact variety pack deal at WCS because there is so much “noise” at Western that we don’t want it to be overlooked. Instead we are picking and choosing our timing for maximum effectiveness. This primer announcement gets the ball rolling in the Liberate/MetaTV court. Like all good ball games, you set them up and then knock em down when they are perfectly teed up and that’s exactly what we intend to do.
