Try this:

Radio Shack 2-Way A/V switch

There's a 30 day return policy I believe. If you can see any degredation, you may have to spend more than $14.99.

Something more like the JVC JX-S111?

he was implying that you use all three component cables into the switcher... instead of video and 2 audio, red green and blue.

The Radio Shack unit is a manual switcher, so you don't have the same sort of bandwidth concerns as with the JX-S111. 1080i and 720p require a theoretical minimum of 37Mhz of bandwidth. When you factor in losses and stuff, we're really need more than double this, though, to be fair, depending on your display device, you may not notice the difference (or only notice a slight "softening" of the picture). The JX-S111 supports only 30Mhz through its component circuits.
