From the DNC:

INVESCO FIELD:

Please keep in mind that unlike the Pepsi Center, there is not a window of new construction at INVESCO and there will not be significant build-out at the stadium.

Internet Access and Workspace:

The existing wiring and infrastructure at INVESCO Field will limit Internet access, especially to the seating areas. Credentialed state blogs (Ed note: that would be me) will still be seated with delegates on the field. We will not be able to provide wired Internet access to the state bloggers on the grass-covered field. Similarly, power hookups will be unavailable on the field.

For the general blogger pool, your media credential will provide access to a seating area within the stadium, however wired Internet access will be unavailable unless you choose to purchase a hard-line connection. [..] You can order a hard line directly to a seat in the stadium. All members of the media are being provided this option, but please note wiring and service brings this cost to $850.

Hope my Verizon wireless broadband works, considering an $850 wired hookup isn't even an option for me.

The notice says there will be first come first serve access to mainstream media skybox accommodations for credentialed bloggers, with internet hookups, power, and presumably refreshments. Kos will enjoy that, we're sure.
