From what I was able to read about people doing reviews and such of this product. All it basically does is act as the VGA cable does which is why you need the optical cable for audio. If I am completely mistaken please let me know. I haven't read the stuff on their personal website yet since usually its all marketing words anyway. I hope this works out for people that need it. I know I'm going to try and enter.

"I've got a question for you, are you one of the millions who bought a high definition TV that supports HDMI, but own one of the old school Xbox 360s without HDMI?"

Nope. I got a Premium unit right after the price drop, which included the new HDMI port. I'm golden. Thanks for asking, though. :)

I also highly doubt that this is "the most useful accessory mankind has ever seen." I mean, come on. It sounds like a great thing to have, but this is a Mad Catz product we're talking about here. Maybe if any other company in the universe made it, it'd be good.

Not really that great of a deal. For that price, you can almost get a brand new Box with an HDMI port. Furthermore, you won't be able to tell a difference in picture quality whether you are playing in 720p or 1080p.
