"Accessories" questions
 
I have 2 questions about accessories

1) Is there a controller extension for the XBox? I need another 6 feet or so to reach my couch.

2) I have a S-Video switchbox that I used to use for my PSX, Dreamcast and N64 - is there a similar product for component inputs? Between the DirecTV receiver, DVD player, PS2, and the Xbox (and the Gamecube, I guess, soon)- I don't have enough component inputs on my Sony (only have 2) - so I have to switch the cords myself each time. Does such a thing exist - or will I be forced to upgrade my stereo receiver to one that has a few extra component inputs?

Thanks,
Daryl

I haven't seen extensions yet, but I'm looking out for them, because we need some as well.

Onecall.com is advertising a "component" switch box from JVC, but I think in actuality it is a composite plus stereo switch box. I don't know of any reason it wouldn't work since the box itself doesn't care what is passing through it, but I don't know if you incur a signal lose going through it. Lack of Shielding, bandwidth, blah, blah, blah.
