If you plan to use Netflix or Hulu, at least, it appears that you need a TV. If I don't have an active video source, i.e. TV, turned on when i access either service, there's no audio. Hulu actually complains about it, and Netflix just won't play without some active thingy connected to the HDMI and, presumably, decoding video. -- Buddy Brannan, KB5ELV - Erie, PA Phone: (814) 860-3194 or 888-75-BUDDY
