I'm going to be mounting my new plasma HDTV on the wall and would like to find a good, multi-connector wall plate that I can put on either end of the wall for connecting the components to the TV. Ideally the wall plate(s) would have 2 HDMI jacks, an S-video jack, component video jacks, left/right audio jacks, an ethernet jack, and a cable jack.
Has anybody found such wall plates, or what would you recommend instead for connecting the various cables through the wall?
Thanks!

If you would like a plate custom make for that application please email me. Everything you describe is doable except maybe the HDMI, you should not be pluggin that type of wire into wall plates, then jumping it out again. You should have the wall plate made with a small hole for the cable to exit from and go directly to the TV. HDMI is a little sensitive to being "butt spliced" together whereas many other technologies are not.

you need to call an electrician with a low voltage department/guy.
I worked for an electrician doing low voltage, we didn't do hdmi or s-video, but everything else you described plus more. (we didn't do it because no one had asked,...yet) Some local shops should be able to do it.
They will have create the plate. We could create almost any combination of coax, Ethernet, cable, audio, speaker, etc you could want. I'm sure s video and hdmi is available too.
