Belkin 2-to-1 HDMI switch
Accessory maker Belkin has released a new AV product, the HDMI 2-to-1 Video Switch. The device lets users connect two HDMI devices -- such as Apple TVs and HD DVD players -- to a single HDMI or DVI port, whether on a computer monitor or an HDTV.
Resolutions between 480i and 1080p are available on any of the supported connections, and the switch always defaults to the highest single-link video resolution. Inputs are not chosen automatically, but an infrared remote is bundled in the package. The switch is available now in Canada and the US for approximately $50 to $55; Asia, Europe and Australia will receive it in March of 2008.

Hmm...
Pay $50-55 for a Belkin remote controlled 2-to-1 switcher or pay the same price for a Monoprice remote controlled switcher that can switch more than twice as many devices (5-to-1). Decisions, decisions.
I have one of the Monoprice switchers and it is excellent.
