Trump's Las Vegas Hotel / Tower gets Cox HDTV, LG LCDs

by Darren Murph posted Apr 17th 2008 at 9:06AM

Earlier this year, we heard that Trump's New York Hotel & Tower would be showing its guests with all sorts of IPTV goodies; now, we've learned that The Donald's Las Vegas counterpart will be fetching services from Cox Communications. The two have worked together in order to deploy a triple-play solution, giving the hotel voice, video and data services from the same provider. To the patron, this means that a host of HD channels / VOD material will be available on the 42-inch / 32-inch LG LCD HDTVs (located in the bedroom and living room) and the 19-inch LG flat-panel in the bathroom. In case you're hoping to get connected, each room will also have Ethernet jacks as well as 802.11a/b/g WiFi access. As for paying your tab for the week? Let's just say we hope the slots treat you right.

Problem is, that the Donald's hotel does NOT have a casino, so you have to go elsewhere for slots. Why would I stay in a fancy hotel, and have to cab it to gamble?
Failure written all over it - a Vegas cabbie told me recently that he's been fighting for a license and has failed.

What a cheap bastard only a 32 and 42 inch HDTV and its a freaking LG.Why not a Pioneer Kuro or at least the Panasonic 50PZU00 its pretty cheap and rated the best by consumer magaizne but I guess he thinks that any HDTV is just fine..Why did he even bother putting in those HDTV's if he isn't going all out.
