I just told the lady there that i will bring my PS3 over with a HDMI to DVI cable and test it out. She was ok with it. Can you tell me the diffrence between HDMI compliant and HDCP support? Are they the same?

There ya go, nothing like an in store test. HDMI and HDCP are not necessarily one and the same. HDMI is just one of the ways to be HDCP ready hardware wise. You can also use a combination of DVI and optical audio or the new DisplayPort. HDCP concerns specifically the copyright protection of Blu-ray. In other words it's possible for two different displays to have HDMI ports, with one being HDCP compliant and the other not.

Nothing like Sony keeping it simple eh? :roll:

On a brighter side, you'll know instantly whether it's HDCP or not - you won't get a picture out the PS3 via HDMI if the connection isn't HDCP enabled.
