Official Sony HDMI Cable v1.3 (PS3)

[.geek]

Hi guys

Do any of you know where in Cape Town you can purchase the PS3 HDMI cable from a retail store?

Take2 has it for R277. Is this about how much it costs?

Thanks.

Take2 is based in Cape Town. You could order online and collect in Milnerton.

Yeah, the reason I asked is because they don't have stock.

Why not just buy this one instead?

HDMI cables are all the same...

Cool, thanks. I didn't see that.

Yip - was about to say it was the devices.

PS3 is 1.3 though?

HDMI 1.3b1 is the latest standard but I'm pretty sure that cable is 1.3 since 1.3 became standard in 2006.

For what it's worth, I was at Builders Warehouse and happened to come across an "Ellies" 1.3 HDMI cable where all the TV aerial etc accessories are.

It only cost R179 and is 3m in length. It works perfectly.

An HDMI cable is an HDMI cable : there's no different version on the cables.

The devices themselves are what determines the version

Yeah don't be fooled by marketing like this...

That $100 cable performs the same as any other HDMI cable lol.

Cool. Well, I'm happy with what I got.

PS3 + 32" Samsung Bordeaux LCD + HDMI cable.
