Some will, HDMI sockets are now being fitted to Tele's DVD Recorders and Computers, they are slowly replacing Scarts.

You might need it when all the TV transmitters go digital, supposed to be at the end of this year.

You'l probably need a new tele or a digital box, and it will have HDMI sockets.

They are quite expensive & I can foresee you needing one, one day so maybe just stick it in a cupboard for another 12 months :D

you don't need one to go digital, you do need one to go HD.

They are as others say a 'shiny new' type of scart connection but one that supports High Definition connections. Without one ( Or another HD compatible connection) you lose the HD quality.

If you are thinking of getting a Xbox 360, PS3, blu ray DVD player and a HD TV in teh next couple of years then keep it.


If not I reckon you can easily get a fiver for it!
