 You'd probably do better at Radio Shack July 26, 2008
I had this cable for a week before it stopped working completely. I've even tried changing it around on several different components - so I KNOW it's the cable. There have been a few reviews here saying the same thing. Use your judgment.
 Good quality cables for a low price July 25, 2008
I'm no videophile but these cables seem to do a great job for way less than half the price of other HDMI cables. I am completely thrilled. I'll be buying another as soon as we get the LCD for the living room.
Why pay more? July 25, 2008
Unless you are some type of video elitist, why in the world would you want to pay those monster prices for Monster cables when these do exactly the same thing for a whole lot less money? Buy these, they are great, and
you will not be disappointed.
Does not provide a tight connection! July 23, 2008
I used these cables for more than a couple of months, and they seemed to work well. I've read that a digital signal either gets there, or it does not. I purchased 3 of these "cables to go."
Well, every once in a while, I would have the video blink out and then quickly blink back on in a DVD movie. I was not able to reproduce the error, as it was completely random, and never in the same place of the movie. Normally, it was once per movie or every other movie. I thought maybe it was my player malfunctioning.
With component and composite cables, I would check to make sure they were tight, so why not with HDMI. I just ever so slightly wiggled the HDMI connection right where it attached to my Sony HDTV.
What do you know, the video blinked out and quickly back on from the slight wiggling, just like I experienced in the movies. Ok I thought, maybe it was my HDMI port on my Sony?
So, I tried the wiggle test on another port, AND on ANOTHER HDTV, and using ALL 3 of these cables I purchased on both my Sony and my Panasonic HDTV's. Guess what? The video blinked off and on again with the wiggle test, no matter where it was connected. An extremely loose connection to be sure. It wasn't just 1 of these cables, but all 3 I had.
I replaced all my "cables to go" cables with a different brand, and they all withstand the "wiggle test." Approximately 1 month and 12 or so movies later, no more random video drop outs.
Conclusion:
Even on 2 different HDTV's and different HDMI ports, these 3 different "cables to go" cables had an extremely loose connection.
Apparently an HDMI signal that doesn't fit tightly can lose connection and cause dropouts.
Don't buy these "cables to go." The actual cable might be fine, but the HDMI male connectors are not so good.

It worked for 7 months that's it. Not happy but like always you get what you pay for.
