• Hook up multiple HDMI devices to the TV

When you have a DVD player, Playstation 3 and cable TV connecting to a high-def TV with a single HDMI input, you have a problem. How do you connect them devices to the TV simultaneously? That’s when you need to hop out and look for HDMI switches. A HDMI switch looks like a multiple router modem when it’ll serves as a HDMI middleware that hooks up all your devices to the TV.

I bought one last weekend because I need to hook up my fresh-out-of-box Playstation 3 to the TV’s already occupied (DVD) HDMI input. Next up my list, GTA IV!
