Default Any one seen this HDMI cable?

Is it any good? Its $9.99... and I'm sure I could buy cheaper online, but I could just physically pick this up.

Will upload a pic in a sec, uploading not working properly.

Edit: Pic uploaded.

If sitting or standing 6 feet away from the screen isn't a problem for you I'd say get it. I grabbed a micro HDMI 2 HDMI converter off Amazon for about 4$ shipped but that's only because I had a couple 15ft hdmi cords available already( use them for xbox360/PC)

Well, I bought it. It's working pretty well.

Yeah, if I had some HDMI cables around, I probably would have done just that. I have a PS3 and a monitor that use them, so I probably should have done something like that, but I figured 'hey, 10 bucks no big deal'

So how you liking the hdmi out to your tv? What apps/games/media do you use?

I like showing off all the great pics the G2x can take to family and also teasing them with our superior gaming devices on the bigscreen with games like gta3,riptide,zen pinball,pinball thd,shadowgun etc.

I like it, it looks good. Only problem is the edges seem a tiny bit cropped out. Like if I'm holding it vertical, the top half of the time is cut off. Anything I can do about that?

I never thought about pictures, but I was thinking of watching movies. I've had Shadowgun and I just bought GTAIII...

First thing I did pretty much was try Minecraft, hahaha. Then I watched some youtube vids.
