I'm almost certain they wouldn't do HDMI. It would take too much processing power. I'd also assume it would drive costs up a bit. HDMI has the capability of outputting 1GB per second, which is WAYYYY above what a PPC would need.
To be fair, they don't necessarily need to max out the capabilities of HDMI for this. They don't need to use the full bandwidth of the cable, and in theory it wouldn't take anything special to process HDMI at only 640x480, since it's just a digital DVI signal. That said, I still agree it would be unlikely overkill.
