No Cables?

I watched the video and it doesn't include any cables other than the power cord? Do they at least let you know that so you are prepared to run out and go get some HDMI or component cables etc...

That's like getting your new toy at Christmas and realizing that "Batteries Are Not Included".

Ok, the box does. But I would imagine people ordering it online don't get to look at the box. Just seems odd.

At least they're not trying to get you to buy Apple brand cables like the good old days...

How many DVD players include HDMI cables?

Most just include cheap RCA audio/Video cable.

Apple use to be for "Little Kids and Old People," now they have to include "The Technically Challenged." To keep the cost down and also to make the people aware of what they need to hook it up is essential. Things are getting so complicated now, people need to know how to connect and run them on their own.

The comment wasn't specifically about those...Just nothing at all in the box is a bit discouraging.
