I've never seen the point of early adoptations of HDMI. The first and last HDMI cable I bought constantly caused flckering and weird artifacts. I've only used it for a while because aesthetics and being lazy: no extra audio cables needed. A really old VGA cable provided more superior video quality on the same setup.. And HD+ resolutions, no problemo.
