I just got my 32" sony Bravia and I'm loving it :D

I'm looking to connect my PS3 to my TV with an HDMI. Do I need those fancy version 1.3 HDMI cables or are regular ones fine?

Also I want to hookup my PC to my TV, what adapter do I need for an HDMI hookup? (8800GT GPU, it has 2 DVI ports and an S-Video Composite.)

I'll be purchasing off monoprice, if you could give me links to products off that site that would be awesome.

Thanks!

The regualr cables are fine for 1.3 under 10 meters I believe (might be 5 meters)

Is this the right connector for getting my computer to play on my TV?

yes that is one way you can do it, if you already have an HDMI cable
