Default HDMI 1.3, 1.3a, 1.3a/b? For xbox360 use?

I did read the other HDMI posts but no mention of what version is
needed.
On this page is says a "High Speed" HDMI cable is needed for 1080P. That
"Standard " is only good for 720p/1080i.

I have a 32" JVC J300 1080P set and going to use an Xbox360 with it.
What version do I need "High Speed" or 1.3 or 1.3a or1.3a/b?
There is a store down the street from me they have 6' HDMI cables for
$7 but dont say what version.
From the other posts here though this $7 cable should be fine,
Correct?

THANKS

As stated in that FAQ, the differences between version 1.3a, 1.3b, and 1.3c
are testing and manufacturing issues.

To be safe, get a "Category 2" (High Speed) cable for 1080p, although a
Category 1 (ver 1.3) will probably work OK.

More than likely, yes.
