HDMI is a packet based protocol (similar to PCI-Express) which allows for more features. One of which allows for re-broadcasting more easily over longer cables, many to one allowing for multiple panels on a single source to be managed easier.  One thing this new blob did NOT mention is that most companies (including Analogix)supporting DP will have HDMI compatibility!. The connector is different, but with a dongle you will be able to hook up to your HDMI monitor using your DP source. This is a huge win for DP (Display Port)! I think the only way there going to make it as a standard it to have some backwards compatibility!.
