I could be wrong, but I was under the impression that they'd gone with the DVI to HDMI cable instead because of trouble with the combined weight of cable and adapter pulling HDMI connections out of equipment. Obviously that problem would only exist for DVI cables connecting to HDMI devices (the female DVi to male HDMI scenario you refer to) since HDMI to DVI adapters would be secured by DVI's thumbscrews, but going with the DVI to HDMI cable also avoids the problem of somebody ordering the wrong adapter. (If you have a DVI to HDMI adapter, you are also probably going to want to offer HDMI to DVI, and then you have an opportunity for somebody to order the wrong one).

Gonk: In my situation, I aleady have 35 feet long DVI-D cable to link the projecter. I would rather get a adapter instead of another cable with HDMI and DVI at different end when I get another dvd player or projecter with only HDMI. You know what I meant.

That makes sense, but I haven't heard anything about Outlaw planning to carry an adapter like that. I've had some luck with cables from pacificcable.com - this adapter looks like what you are interested in.
