Technology has long since invaded our offices and homes, and electronic appliances continue to pile up year after year. The year-end shopping spree is at its maximum peak and there are chances that Santa
dropped for you a HDMI or DVI-enabled device such as home theaters, home stereos, a recording space or even a common gaming console, be it Wii or Sony's PlayStation.

All these devices make our lives much easier, but, in exchange, interconnectivity is a living hell. The wireless USB 2.0 standard is a dream about to become real, but it has a long way ahead and won't be here anytime soon, so sticking to the old-fashioned cables will be the best solution for now.

Cables To Go is offering a practical solution to spare you the hassle of connecting your home appliances. The HDMI and DVi connectors can rotate a full 360 degrees and bend a full 90 degrees angle. The connectors allow the user get the HDMI and DVI cables into the tight spaces behind and under cabinets or other furniture in the house and office.

The solution provided by Cables To Go can seem interesting from the consumer perspective, but it is a real gold mine for the custom installers and other staff that has to fasten high-tech entertainment electronics into tight spaces. The connectors are also useful when installing HDMI and DVI appliances inside cars (such as next-generation DVD players or other entertainment systems).

The connectors are articulated with a central ball that allows them to twist at a full 260 degrees angle while bending at 90 degrees. The connectors are completely functional and preserve full signal integrity, no matter their angle. Currently, Cables To Go is offering nine combinations of the HDMI, DVI-D and DVI-A connectors for as much as $13 each. Lifetime warranty is included.
