HDMI

So I took a side trip to the Fry's after lunch. The HDMI cables cost anywhere from $49 to upward of $120+, and we're not talking about 100ft long cables... only 3-6 ft long! Checked amazon.com, cheap ones come at around $18, check ebay - a sweet $4 deal! The bluetooth dongle also cost a ridicules $29, and they're pulling them off the shelves... cost around $40-50 at Bestbuy, and on ebay a $4 steal again. So, I only bought a 2.5" HDD enclosure, hope it will work with the Philips DVD player... no HDMI up converted movie tonight.... :-(

Have you taken a look at the back panel of your TV lately...? It's a wild wild world of connectors, connectors of all shapes and sizes... sooner or later we're going to run out of connectors shapes... USB alone, has at least 3 differnt connector sizes/shapes that I know of...
