 - High Quality at a reasonable priceIts difficult to wax poetic about a cable - if it works well you should never even notice that its there. And I want to be careful here not to wade into a discussion of how much a cable is worth, especially when talking about digital signals that are either there, or not. I pondered the question of $3 or $300 cables for a long while, and chose to hedge my bets by buying this one for the following reasons: a) Its pricing places it right in the middle of the pack. b) you can see just by looking at it why it might merit this price. c) It would be madness for SCEA to sell a product as graphically intense as the PS3 and hobble it with poor quality cables. (These cables are made by SCEA too.) So what do I get? I get extremely high cable construction quality, and a set of extra long cables. The 10-foot USB cable length is a boon since it lets me position myself comfortably away from the monitor. The cable jacket is a very flexible cloth like material that makes it look like this cable will last forever, no matter how tightly I squeeze it through the openings in my entertainment center. The ends fit well into my HDMI connectors and are supposed to be gold plated. All I care about now, is that the images are wonderfully clear ... and I can safely go back to ignoring cables. Rating: - This is GREAT!!!I am fairly new to the HD arena, but I have done some research on it and finally purchased an 46" LCD 1080P Sharp Aquos just in time for Christmas. Unfortunately, I did not have an HD Player or Blue-Ray Player because I was reluctant to purchase something that might lose to the other format. Well, now the HD war is over and Blue Ray is the victor so I purchased the new Sony Playstation 3 80GB w/ Metal Gear Solid 4 (which is awesome BTW). With this new HDMI cable I am able to see the sharpest image possible on my HDTV. In fact, I watched the movie "Enchanted" and saw all the hairs on the upper lip of Amy Adams as she and Patrick Dempsey kissed. Sorry about that Amy. It has also been great watching some of my regular DVDs on the PS3 with this cable. Right now, I am watching "Star Wars V: The Empire Strikes Back" and it looks better on my tv than it did when I was nine years old watching it at the theatre in 1980. I highly recommend that you get this HDMI cable if you have a PS3 and want to get the best video quality avilable. Rating: - Nice qualityYes yes, I know, as long as you're getting a decent quality HDMI 1.3a cable it doesn't make any difference what you get. Still, this is far from the most overpriced cable around, and it is nice. What I really love about it is the USB cable it includes. As others have mentioned, the material it's made out of is great (the HDMI cable is the same way, but that's less relevant since it's behind your TV and you'd hardly ever move it). It's almost like a cloth or something-I've never seen a cable built like this before. It doesn't seem to "curl" up like most cables do. I'd prefer the PS3 just use wired controllers, but that cable is a decent compromise. Frankly I wish it had been included with the PS3... It's also 10 feet long which is great. I actually found a use for the short USB cable included with the PS3-I have my PS2/PS1 memory card adapter hooked to it, since that only needs to sit next to the system itself. Note that these nifty USB cables are also sold in a separate 2 pack for slightly less. I ended up buying those too so I can hook up multiple controllers. Rating:  - Please don't buy thisCable doesn't cost this much. You are getting ripped off. Please don't buy these, they are at least 5X overpriced. Rating: - High quality HDMI!!!This cable pack is a 10 foot pack. The hdmi is 10 foot long and so is the usb to mini usb. I bought a $30 hdmi at wal mart and lets just say you get what you pay for. Once I plugged this hdmi by sony in it was a huge difference! This is a very high quality hdmi for the price and the usb to mini usb is a big plus also. Definitely recommended, would buy again.
