PS3 Fanboy thinks it's pretty cool that Sony is only bundling cables that the majority of tvs have (i.e. only composite and s-video).

Not sure that I understand Sony's marketing plan. They are reportedly trying to drive mass market adoption of BluRay, but this move goes clearly against that. You all know what will happen. Joe six pack will go out and buy a BluRay disk to go with their shiny new PS3. They'll put that BD disk into their Sony, which by the way is connected to their TV with the cables included with the machine because they'll be sure that Sony would have included all of the A/V cables necessary to get the most from the only True HD device on the market. They'll start the BD movie being outputted in all of its glory via S-video, and they'll be amazingly UNDERWHELMED!!! Then they'll write-off BD as not being worth a $10 - $20 premium per disk over regular DVDs because they don't look any better than DVDs. I realize that folks here know the difference among the different connections, but the average person on the street to whom they are marketing mass adoption generally does not. This just doesn't make a heck of a lot of sense given that they are already taking a huge hit on just including a BD drive in the first place.
