Also, these are 30 gauge, while the MP ones are 28 gauge. And these are less expensive than MP, considering shipping and tax.

Already ordered 2 the other day when they were on here, don't really need them right now but this is too good of a deal to pass up and have a few spares laying around!

Well said. In for 2 sets of 2.

I had to take a break, but this makes the third Tuesday two-fer so far. The water alarms, the smoke alarms and now this. What else did I miss?

In for a pair. Was waiting for a set to go on clearance at the local store but you can not beat this price.

Yep Monoprice.com is the place to go for any type of audio or video cable. I have bought over 10 HDMI cables from them and not a problem with any of them.

Yeah, so whats the point of playing????

There are no real v1.4 cables. There is only
•normal speed (1080i and below) or high speed (1080p and above)
•with ethernet or without ethernet

Cables are rated solely on tested bandwidth and the ethernet channel. The inclusion of v1.4 or whatever version being used for marketing is forbidden due to it's complete uselessness as the specs relate to the device capabilities, not the cables. The cables only see 0's and 1's (aside from the ethernet wires being added, which is also just 0's and 1's).

I'm actually suprised more companies aren't being sued for using it.

30 gauge is smaller than 28 gauge. Although, it doesn't mean much since it still passed the high speed tests to be qualified as a high speed cable.

Come on "Universal Laser Parking System"!!! I want this next!!!

Anyone know if these are wall-rated?

woot sucks after amazon bought them

Yeah, LOOKS LIKE HDMI-to-mini-HDMI. Not fallin for that, though...

In for one...er, two as it were. Thanks woot! I needed two more, this is perfect!

Does that mean I get to sell woot a dozen or so cables?

I remember when wootoffs were pretty good. The items now just seem weak and they dont get much sales so it takes forever. HDMI cable deals are a dime a dozen on the deal of day stuff, ebay, monoprice etc. eritline had a deal for a cable delivered for 1-2.00 recently.

Boatload Of Cables? Jeez...

Yeah but why wait for two weeks for something to get to you from China - when you can wait two weeks for it to come from Texas?

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI#Version_1.4, 1.3b does NOT do 3d over HDMI. You need 1.4 or 1.4a for 3d over HDMI. If these are not 1.4, I will be pissed.

I've checked out this site for so long and finally got my first Woot, just what I was looking for.

Just checked the cables on other sites, and it does appear they are 1.4. The 1.3b must be a typo.

Woot says: "100 Megabytes per second"

Spec says: "a 100 Mb/s Ethernet"

Bits/bytes... it's so complicated.

What's a factor of 8 between friends ?

Freak (just jealous)

I read the description twice and I could have sworn these were hdmi cables but are they mini HDMI to HDMI? If so I'm kinda ticked. Did I miss something?
