	HDMI 1.4 released. Add support for 3DTV \| 08 Feb 10
22:39:27 by TrueQAM Views: 12 \| Comments: 0 HDMI 1.4 released. Add support for 3DTV Now there is another excuse for HDMI cable makers to charge ridiculous prices. HDMI 1.4 has been released along with expensive cables to go along with that unless you buy your cables from monoprice.com. Anyway, so what’s new in HDMI version 1.4? Well 3DTV. Now your 3DTV (if you have one) will be able to speak with your 3DTV device (if you have one.) From what we gather, most current 1.3 cables will be able support 1.4 since it is mainly a protocol change. If we’re wrong, please someone post about it. Thanks.

Cox giving out free PS3s to new and current customers who upgrade?

Sounds too good to be true? Well partially. It appears it was true. It was an offer only for new customers, but is a huge mix-up it became available to everyone in the State of Arizona, including current customers who upgrade. As you can imagine, there was deluge of orders that they couldn’t keep up with. They’re apparently now selectively honoring the deal.
