4x1 HDMI Audio Video Switcher from Key Digital

Key Digital announced 4 to 1 HDMI switcher is ready to be shipped as soon as you order.That is, if you happen to have 4 DVD players with HDMI and use at least 2 of them in a day this is a product for you. This is not only a switcher but also a scaler that will match its ouput to the native resolution of the display but I still don't see a real justification to throw $1799 for this joy. As it is stated, this black box is compatible with all popular sources and 1080p that I guessed by looking at the picture above because 1080p is not yet popular. The box will also switch your audio signals of digital and analog origin and it, as anything else nowdays, is HDCP compliant and has a single problem: does not do video frame rate conversion. Not exaclty exciting toy.
