It's like buying a printer. The manufacturer could just put it in the damn box for next to nothing yet it's sold seperately so retail stores sell one for $5-$30. With the slim sony is surely counting pennies as well, and HDMI out of the box is secondary to even minimal cost savings. Not including an HDMI cable again allows retail stores to sell the customer an overpriced one to help their margins. |
Well considering Wal-Mart has no mark-up on the consoles to speak of, we need accessories like HDMI to earn any form of profit.
