Are we talking a box to let you plug more components into a single TV HDMI input?

Re: HDMI Expander.

A number of companies do them - QED, for example, though that one isn't exactly cheap. Oppo has one for about £70 with three inputs, and places like Maplin and Keene Electronics also sell them. Maplin, for example, has a Bandridge unit for about £40.
