He's right. HDMI does not come standard with ANY PS3 bundle officially issued by Sony right now. If you do get it with the system it's because your retailer is offering it as an extra. All PS3 sets come with standard A/V cables.

Weird, I know. Particularly since the whole point of the PS3 is it's an HD console.

I already have mine from Monoprice but i wanted to make sure I did not have to buy a specific one. I am upgrading my Panny 30 to the 80g PS3 for the living room.

No HDMI included, any HDMI will be fine, even a cheapo one, as in tests, they performed exactly the same as mega-price monster cables!

Any HDMI cable will do, regardless of price they are all the same.

Dell had HDMI included in bundle deals a few months back, may want to check the site for new ones...
