Yes there is. The new box might even come with it. Big stores like Best Buy also carry these. They are also now selling a cable where you don't need the converter where it has an HDMI plug on one end and a DVI on the other.

I don't believe the box comes with the HDMI DVI convertor, and CWS is correct, there are cables that have DVI on one and HDMI on the other ends. Make sure you buy the cable online as B&M stores like BB will charge you an arm and a leg for it. Compare the 2m price from Monstercable to the link provided below.CWS_kahuna said:

Good Point Tonedeaf, The price of the cable at BB will be higher than what can be found from some quality companies online. I mentioned BB only because eveyone knows what it is and if someone needed one asap that's probably your best bet.
Noticed the Best Buy model number was H10S (Samsung?). Maybe there will be other versions of the H10.

I'm thinking no - since the software look / layout of the Samsung H10 is identical to the Thompson / RCA D10.
There are HDMI/DVI adaptors availible. I went with the Monster Ultra THX800 HDMI-HDMI cable - (I decided to get the cables HDMI-HDMI since thats where the future seems to be going and it will reduce the cable cost once recievers start having HDMI support - or if I decide I "need" a newer TV) and I put a HDMI - DVI adaptor on the TV side (again the Monster THX) Both cable parts would retail for $180. (10 less than the reciever cost me............) But, the picture quality is phenomenal - and looks significantly better than the Samsung 360 w/ a Belkin DVI cable did.
