What cable to connect iPhone to TV after 1.1.1??

Here's the official answer:

Is this document saying that the iphone cannot output progressive scan? That is pretty weak if it is true.

I phoned the Apple Store today and was told that the current AV adapters (connectors) are NOT compatible with the iPhone, and that I should wait until they list one in the accessories for the iPhone.

Right, the iPhone/touch only does interlaced. The classic and nano do progressive.

Actually, I think the TV out used to come from docks, too. The one that came with the iPod photo (no, doesn't work with the new iPods) had SVideo out on the dock. The difference is that the "yellow" composite came out of the headphone and if you wanted higher quality SVideo, you had to use the dock (no headphone capable SVideo cable).

Perfect, something to spend my $100 rebate on. . .

I'm 99.9% sure the chart on the page that was linked above USED to say that the iphone could output 480p or 576p - I double-checked it before ordering the component A/V cables. It would seem the tech specs have been updated...
Is there a valid reason why the nano can handle progressive output but the iphone can't?

I've got the other .1 for ya. 🙂 I pored over the specifications immediately after launch of the iPod touch to compare their specs against the classic and nano. iPhone and touch have always been interlaced and the classic/nano progressive.

The reason why must be due to the chipsets used, of course, but why they made the decision to make them different I've no idea why (price, size, energy consumption, etc.)

Im certain that Ebay will be flooded with the new updated cables in a matter of weeks. They are being manufactured in China as we speak. If you guys are willing to wait, Im sure youll be able to pick up a set for under $20 easily, probably with a charger like Apple's.

I think Ill do just that, $50 is a joke, just milking it for all it's worth trying to make all they can before Asia releases all the knock off cables.
