One would imagine that there are a lot of publicity to be gained from such an
event. Given the effort done here by certain companies to promote their product,
the interest should be there if they're just as eager.

That would be the best solution IMO. That is if they can agree on the trivial
terms of play, ie. hardware, timecontrol and number of rounds, which might not
be easy. The important issue is that everyone knows what the first prize is.
Using older and incomplete (participant wise) tournaments is not the greatest
idea. But just as good as a living-room tournament if the information is
correct.

It's a likely candidate. That's all I can say :-)).
