HDMI 4x2 Matrix Switch

Gefen makes a 4x4 HDMI Matrix Switch but it's over $1500

There is -> this <- one too. Not sure how much $$$ though.

The other way to do it would be to have a 3 way splitter for each source (1 in 3 out) and run one of each split source to a switch, and then the switch to the TV. The matrix switch just makes it cleaner with less wires and hassle. It might cause HDCP or HDMI handshaking issues also.
Interesting. They all claim to be HDCP compliant. Wonder why such a big price difference.
