On recent HD TVs that's true, but if you go back more than 2-3 years (or didn't buy a giant 55" set) then it's quite likely you'll have to resort to the AC adapter.

The question is - do you have to resort to the AC adapter if you have one of the newer HDMI ports?

The fine text on the linked page says "Power cord required" (emphasis mine).
