I got a Philips HDMI cable at Musica for like R150. Trust me you don't need anything fancy, it will still do the job.

Good buy.
What on earth is 'refurbished'?

it means something was wrong with the console, but was fixed & then restored to original condition so it's "new" again. A PS3 that was truly refurbished is closely priced to brand new consoles.

You will enjoy UC2 very much. When I started playing it I wondered why I didn't get it sooner. It's like Indiana Jones meets the Mummy meets National Treasure. You will wana get the first UC afterwards, I know I did and went and bought it.
 
whilst discussing cable quality .. I agree with HDMI cable comments but is there any importance in getting better quality (ie more expensive) OPTICAL cables to transfer Audio from PS3 to Home theatre ?
 
Cool, got my HDMI cable from Musica for R149... now, I have one more question... Will this cable make the game audio come out of my JVC sound system speakers, or do I need a seperate cable for this... there are some A/V cables that came with the thing...
 
Depends if your amplifier does HDMI repeating.

If so, you'll need another HDMI cable to go from the amplifier to the TV (with one HDMI cable going from the PS3 to the amplifier).

If not, you'll need an optical/coax cable to go from your PS3 to the amplifier (with the HDMI cable going from the PS3 to the TV).

If its digital dont buy expensive, its like buying gold plated network cables.... just makes other people rich with no benefit to you.

An update on the new PS3... all I can say is WOW, WOW, WOW!!! My son and I played the thing the whole loooooooooooooong weekend... Even bought FIFA 11 game and it is very very addictive!

Best buy of 2011 for me...

Edit: I actually didn't know that the controllers have 'wireless' capability... So there I was playing it with the cable attached to it, until a friend of mine told me this information. Now I can play from various spots in my living room...
