Hello all, I currently own a Sony KDL-46V3000 (1080p). It ships with 2 hdmi inputs, the are both occupied due to my Xbox 360 Elite and DVR cable. I wanted to begin my research now for the future on a good HDMI swith box, atleast a 3-1 or more. I know there are a variety brands out right now, but which ones are good with no loss of quality in picture or sound? Ease of use and attractiveness are a important factor as well (prefer black, but who's being picky? LOL) Any thoughts or suggestions would be much appreciated, I did see one that was reviewed in ign, it is the pelican xtrememac hdmi switcher, it had good reviews with some exceptions of use with apple tv, and the cost is around $89.95 on amazon. Thanks for the help!!

I'm pretty impressed with this one (http://www.octavainc.com/HDMI%20switch%204port_toslink.htm), but it's fairly spendy. I have some legacy DVI/Toslink stuff that I needed to connect. They do make HDMI only ones for cheaper, and I'd assume that the circuitry is similar in quality.

monoprice.com. I just bought a 4 port switch for about $51 shipped. The 5 port is only a few $'s more. It is black and has a remote. As far as quality I have no complaints whatsoever.

Check this one out from Monoprice.com it should be available soon.
