Hey, so my new HD STB has HDMI, and seeing as my tv only has 2 component cable hookups, I wanna switch from component for the STB (that's the only cables they gave me for it) to HDMI so I can have the PS2 using component as well as my Wii.

Long story short, I need an HDMI cable, and I'm looking for the cheapest website. I know that any HDMI cables you buy in stores are total ripoffs, seeing as their digital cables and they're being sold for $40 at the LEAST.

Basically, anybody that knows a good site that makes quality (as in, won't fall apart) cables on the cheap, lemme know.

I'm back in plano now, so that probably wouldn't work out too well. I'm just looking for like a cheapo $5 cable from someone who can make'em online and not charge me for a brand name (*cough*monster*cough*)

edit: nvm. found'em for $8.50 shipped from monoprice.com

I was going to suggest monoprice, but looks like you found them.
