Phew! Too much Javascript to sort through to get the actual URL. But I finally found it:

Basically, the video is about Christmas season toy reviews, and one of their products covered was VEX. The woman doing the reviews gave praised Vex, and there was video from the 2005 Championship Event in there as well. The video was caught by my father at lunch time. Finally - robots are going mainstream!

Kudos to Vex!
