HDMI cable length...how long is too long ?

I am planning a new HT/Audio installation . I want to know if there is any negatives to using long HDMI cables . I am planning to put about 24ft. of cable between 2 wall plates . Then short HDMI cables to connect the source to one wall plate location and the TV to the other wall plate location . In effect the TV is on one side of the room and the sources are on the other side .

Thank You

MonoPrice.com sells their Redmere HDMI cables that are specifically for longer runs, 25+ ft. I have heard nothing but good things about these cables and I recommend them for longer runs. A 50 ft. Redmere cable will cost you about $68 + shipping...
