Sometimes I think there is a vast conspiracy between between HDMI cable makers and the makers of Band-Aids. I don't know how many times I have scraped or otherwise destroyed my knuckles trying to plug a HDMI cable into into a back to a PC, TV, or PS3. Sony, making a very small but important change, has developed the Sony Swivel HDMI cable. Conceptually it is brilliant, and practically it is very effective.

The Sony Swivel HDMI cable acts much like a standard HDMI cable, with one notable exception: the connector end can swivel and rotate to accommodate plugging into any device. It can lock into a 45 or 90 degree angle to add both stability to your flexibility. What I like about this is that you can swivel the cable and achieve a "ratchet" type angle that allows you to leverage the cable into place, but the biggest benefit is that you can move devices without risking damaging your HDMI ports.

The Cables will come in both 3' and 6' flavors. The 3' cable will cost about $50, and the 6' will run $60. If your knuckles are torn, or your HDMI ports are jiggling free, get this cables now; they are cheaper then hospital bills or a new TV.
