I am seriously contemplating purchasing an HDTV early next year, possibly in February. And I would like for the TV to have HDMI. Problem is, my receiver doesn't support HDMI, and I'd prefer to have all video (as well as audio of course) go through the receiver and then have one HDMI cable go to the TV. So having a switcher would be mega helpful. Er . . . anyway, the answer is YES, I am considering pure digital connectivity for my AV System in '06.
Clicking on the link, however, didn't really help me figure anything out, but clicking on the banner did. I don't have much experience with switchers, but it certainly looks like it fits my bill.
cheers,
