HDFury: bolt-on HDCP modification for RGB displays

What’s this we have here? Another blot-on wonder boy looking to get smo– (waitaminute… this isn’t Most Wanted…)… Well, this is another bolt-on wonder boy we found being marketed: the HDFury Permanent HDCP Modification Kit.

Short version: this adapter screws on to the SUB-D HD15 input port of an RBG display – PC monitors, HDTVs, plasma or projectors – turns that display into an HDCP-compliant display. Name it: PS3, Blu-Ray, HD-DVD, whenever Microsoft ever gets around to confirming the HDMI Xbox 360 (which is why we’re putting it in the 360 site), if you ever get an HDMI-enabled PC graphics card, that sort of thing.

The manufacturers of HDfury claim it’s all legal conversion, fully compliant with all HDCP rules, plug-and-play, and will deliver high quality RGB-output video from an HDCP HDMI source. As it bolts on to the display set it also requires no external power source. Suddenly, the issue of HDMI-less HD sets for the PS3 may no longer be an issue, if this thing works as advertised. Now, the only thing missing is an HDMI cable… The link below takes you to the product website.

You know, if this works, this ain’t just no bolt-on wonder boy looking to get smoked. This is the smoke.
