Very interesting read. I'm thinking of getting a 4x1 box to complement my HD satellite receiver, PC and (in the fullness of time) Blu-ray & HD DVD (or dual-format). My question is, are such boxes generally good for passing various refresh rates from PCs? I use Powerstrip on my PC to enable playback of 'NTSC' films on DVD at 48Hz for judder-free picture and correct sound pitch, and don't want to spend money on a box only to find it doesn't work for that sort of setup!
