Connecting PS2 to HDMI

Is there any way of connecting a PS2 to an HDMI input? I have a single HDMI cable going to my TV and am going to buy an HDMI switcher box. In the long term I (obviously!) want to upgrade to a PS3, so don't want to spend a lot.

Not that I know of. I've found component to be as good as HDMI anyway. Are you limited on component inputs?

Re: Connecting PS2 to HDMI

I don't have any component inputs - only HDMI. I guess I'll have to buy a converter - or maybe splash out on a PS3....

I'd also like to know if there is any way of hooking the ps2 up to my monitor, which has hdmi, vga and dvi inputs. Afaik, there isn't any way to do so...
