The official BotCon 2007 website BotCon.com has been updated. Here is the update that was posted:

"There will be a couple of surprises when you check into one of the official BotCon hotels! The first one we will tell you about is:

Courtesy of Dave and Busters, upon check-in at the Westin, Biltmore, Marriott Courtyard or Hilton, each registered guest will receive a free VIP Power Card! This card is good for a couple of FREE games at Dave and Busters...

While you are waiting for the Transformers Movie to start on Thursday night, drop in at Dave & Buster's (40,000 sq ft of fun) located across from the Providence Place Cinema 16.
Their Million-Dollar Midway features over 200 electronic state-of-the-art games, simulators and virtual reality games.
In addition to the fun and games of the Midway, they offer ViewpointAreas that contain Championship Style
Shuffleboard & World Class Pocket Billiards tables, along with 26 televisions and 3 full bars.

We hope you enjoy your time in Providence!
(oh yes, and the other surprise is, well a surprise)"

I've been there before in California, pretty neat place and you just have to laugh at the ticket prizes. Adults can get a Craftsman Power Drill for 1000 tickets. :D

Now I booked now hotel room before the announced it was an official hotel of the convention. So will I still receive the surprizes if I tell them I'm there for BotCon when I check in? Or should I contact BotCon now?

Call. It neverhurts to ask beforehand.

Lucky guess, I'd say I'm sorry. I say that because D&B probably printed tickets for known packages. But I could be wrong, since people booked other rooms with Botcon/

Unless they are paying to fly us all to China, I doubt there will be a factory tour....:P

No, but there is a tour of the Hasbro facility! The D&B thing sounds like fun! I'll be there!
