My old TV only had one HDMI port. The PS3 and Wii used a shared third party component cable and the 360 used the component cable that came with the console. The image was virtually indistinguishable to an HDMI pic (the TV was only 1080i/720p, anyway). My current TV has about five HDMI ports but I can still see the new PS3 version creating a bit of an uproar among a minority of people. I'm sure real video whores will want to go with an HDMI enabled set anyway and those that were using components won't care, anyway. Still, it's a function that many won't be aware of until it effects them.
