The only other reason I could think of for this happening is that when Tab was recruiting for the soft launch on Twitter, I sent my rewards # to him in addition to my name and email. However, I'm not sure if that is a factor since I didn't get an email invite...
Thanks. Maybe I'll ask about it in a few days (weeks?) when their support people are less busy.

You are verifying for the group. You are answering a question that has perplexed so many over the previous days - Do HUD's work on any of the sites?
And, will they be allowed when the sites go official on the 26th? We know Ultimate has commented that they are not compatible with their site.
Just trying to confirm other sites policies. BTW we also know that Nevada is not allowing HUD's at the present. NJ regulations not as precise?
Sorry if I sounded defensive. Just wanted to point out that all a screen capture is doing is showing that I didn't intentionally mislead the forum by saying that my PT4 HUD works (believe me, I didn't). If I was lying about it, and I wanted to continue spreading this misinformation, I could easily photoshop a HUD onto a screen grab of a table.
To speak to your comments/questions: I don't think it's a matter of Nevada or New Jersey allowing HUDs. It's (1) the features/capability of the software in producing real-time hand histories, and (2) the hand histories being in a format that works with PT4 and/or HM2. Since it seems the Borgata software is (not surprisingly) producing hand histories in PartyPoker format, it is working with PT4 without the folks at PT doing anything to specifically support NJ sites. I would suspect that HM2 is the same. And of course, the PartyPoker software in NJ would likely also work with both.
I believe the main reason Nevada sites don't support HUDs is because of the lack of real time hand histories being written to the user's hard drive, not because they are prohibited (though both may be true). And even if WSOP or Ultimate produced them, PT and HM would not likely be configured to read them.
Bottom line, it seems to be more of a matter of capability and format rather than being allowed by state regulations.
