What does that have to do with anything?

 

If you've read the link you'll see it's an upscaler for non HD consoles(also non HDMI'd people) such as the Wii, PS2, GC etc.

 

"The Nintendo Wii is limited to outputting a 480p signal which you can purchase component cables for. While this will get the most out of what the Wii can handle using the HDMI Blaster to upgrade the signal to 720p did make a difference. The clarity of the signal was amazing and surpasses the component only signal. Just make sure to set your Wii to display 480p and wide screen in it's setup menu."

 

Hence why he thought it could be of interest in this thread.
