the TV's/Monitors don't really need HDMI 1.3. The only difference between 1.2 and 1.3 HDMI is support for the two newest uncompressed audio protocols form Dolby and DTS. Only the source component and the audio components need to support 1.3 HDMI. Since any system that will ever utilize these standards will have external seperate audio systems, there is no need to have them in the TV.
