I used a cable that I bought from amazon. AmazonBasics High-Speed HDMI Cable (6.5 Feet/2.0 Meters) - Supports Ethernet, 3D, and Audio Return [Newest Standard]. My internet service is FIOS from Verizon. I think the notebook that I am using is a little slow for keeping up with the TV sometimes, but otherwise these csbles do the job.

Any inexpensive HDMI cable will work with this set- don't buy into the hype if someone tries to sell you a pricey cable. CNET has a great article that explains HDMI without getting too technical or confusing here: http://reviews.cnet.com/2719-11276_7-226-1.html

I don't know what the names of the HDMI cables are. If you go to the Vizio site, the user manual for this model shows a picture of the HDMI ports as well as the other ports available.

$20 HDMI cables can be found if you shop around (got one here on Amazon, in fact). Just keep in mind that HDMI is required to upconvert standard def DVD's on HD DVD players.One advantage of HDMI is that it makes for a neater connection, one cable as opposed to 5 for video and audio. That said, you won't sacrifice picture quality by using component cables.

I purchased this for a gift to my son. I believe you not need anymore cables. My son never mention that he had to buy a HDMI cable but then again he could of own one already.

I'm not sure. I only have standard HDMI connections. You should probably contact the manufacturer/distributor.

Without more on your exact set up its hard to give a good answer. You will need to have a connecting cable if the correct type for each external component you connect to your tv. HDMI is the preferred connection as it conveys audio and video in a single cable. Use hdmi cables supporting at least hdmi 1.3 protocol to support the functions of this tv.

You'd need some sort of adapter. These are not designed for connection to HDMI.

You might need an HDMI cable. I bought one for about 6 dollars. aside from this you will not need to buy anything else.

Nope, not necessary. You will probably want a 1.3 spec Cat 2 cable. That will set you back about $5 plus shipping. The cable people are at monoprice.com. Most HDMI cables are 6 feet. If that works for you this is what you should buy... http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10240&cs_id=1024008&p_id=3992&seq=1&format=2.

HDMI, component video or composite video cable...any one of these will work for output to the PS3. HDMI would be the easiest if you have a newer PS3 model. Good luck.

Any high speed or 1.4 series HDMI will work. This one is great for every application you can throw at it. Hope this helps! Good luck!

Hdmi cable is enough. If component way of connection , you will need all 3 color connections ( those wire already provided part of package). Hope it helps.

No optical cable is necessary. The HDMI carries the high definition audio and video. (HDMI) High Definition Multimedia Interface. In home theaters, the audio is often extracted from HDMI sources and directed to a surround sound processor while the video is sent to the TV set. See HDMI and HDMI switch.

I second the monoprice.com suggestion. Unlike analog video/audio HDMI is just digital 0's & 1's, any cable that is able to transmit data properly without interference will work.

Sure, 1.3a is fine and suggest you check out the "28AWG HDMI 1.3a Category 2 Certified Male to Male Cables" section (assuming you're not going "in-wall") and don't short yourself - if you think you need 4' get 6' or perhaps more to allow you to move things without stressing the cable or connectors. And how many you need totally depends on your setup but if it's just cable box to tv then one will do. But as you said, easy enough at those prices to get some for the future and help ease the shipping cost.
