Component to HDMI Convertor

My Sony Bravia is wall mounted and I only want a single HDMI cable going to it.

I have a 4-port HDMI switch box which allows me to switch between Sky and PS3, it works great.

I now want to connect my Wii, but it currently only supports component.

Is there a reasonably inexpensive way to convert component to HDMI so that I can use port 3 on the switch box rather than running another set of cables to the TV?
:confused:

    this will do it:

    but it's £150

    this is not soemthing you'll be able to do cheaply i don't think.

    it might be worth putting the money towards an av amp with multiple hdmi inputs and component/hdmi upconversion.

    Depends on what you define as inexpensive! There is this;

    http://www.tvone.com/1t-ypbprhdmi-main.shtml

    but it is £115 inc VAT. (and you can buy one from me. :eek: pm me for details/spec sheet)

    or this at $199 plus shipping & duty from the USA, but there are bound to be UK stockists of Gefen kit;

    I can't find anything cheaper than that though.

    >>Depends on what you define as inexpensive!<<

    So far the cheapest component to hdmi convertor I've found is £40 plus £6 P&P on Amazon, perhaps too good to be true (or at least decent PQ)?

    I certainly don't want to spend £100+, but circa £50 I could just about stomach. Any more than that and I'll just plug the normal Wii video outs into the jacks on the bottom left side of the TV.
