Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Santa Fe TrailCustomer Review: Works as advertised! Summary: 5 Stars
Suddenly, I was all out of HDMI ports. OHNOES! How was my husband going to handle this? There was no way he was going to swap HDMI cables directly on the TV. Oh my fluffy nutters, he might have disappeared in the morass of cables, twist ties, surge protectors and dust bunnies, never to be seen again. The horror!
I found this product after searching the Internets for minutes! Minutes, I tell you! I found a review stating that it would indeed work with my shiny new PS3 (the cause of all this mess) as long as it was hooked to port 5. It has a remote, too - critical because if you get too close to the TV, you can hear the dust bunnies chanting softly, "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn" and no one needs to hear that.
My magic box was delivered swiftly and I was pleasantly surprised at the small size of the device. It's about the size of an old non-wifi router (yeah, I know, I'm old). It has a nice weight to it, too, not like some of the cheap crap you get now days.
I had it hooked up and working in a matter of minutes. (It would have taken less time, but the dust bunnies had summoned a tiny demon who kept making me sneeze.) The PS3 does indeed work on port 5, as promised. The Xbox 360s happily work on any available port and I have no doubt that whatever infernal gaming console I purchase next will be proud to be plugged into the HM-501 5-PORT HDMI SWITCH w/ remote control, HDMI and power cable for HDMI input/output. There is no degradation to the picture or to the sound (this is important - loud noises drown out the drone of the dust bunnies).
(The switching is a little slow, but that's not a real issue since we aren't playing games on the fly. I'm a good multi-tasker, but not that good.)
