I'm not real fond of the way the ends of HDMI cables are molded, because it does end up sticking out pretty far, and a lot of the cables are stiff and heavy, so it puts a lot of stress on that little flat connector. I had problems with my $8 HDMI cable I got about a year ago, but I was able to do some ghetto strain relief and keep the contacts in place.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TVGenius]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 22nd 2008 8:55AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
