I'm not big into adapters either for the same reason..

$5.83 and "free shipping" if you have a  "Prime" account.       I went 
"Prime" after buying some outrageously large items from Amazon ( a 45 
gallon sewage tank on wheels for my travel trailer) and that avoided the 
$150+ shipping charge..    That's what they get when they start to sell 
big stuff on Amazon and offer "free" shipping.   Did you know that you 
can buy a boat on Amazon - with "free" Prime shipping??   I enjoy 
screwing with their business model.  I won't be shocked if they drop 
me.  ;-)

I'm afraid it is a burden I must bear also...

I have more than a couple of the mini HDMI to HDMI cables around here.  They 
are often included with those little pocket video recorders.
I'll postpone my hunt until the boards show up...  :-)
