Personally, S-video out is plenty for me: it's a portable device after all. I used to hook up a tv to my Archos PMA430 in "emergency" cases and it was more than satisfactory, even for office work.
was there not supposed to be a hdmi port as well?

sure, its still primary tv, but more and more tv's can do a nice job as a computer display these days. hell, the only thing really seperating them is that the tv is expected to have all these legacy inputs for other entertainment devices.

oh, and i distinctly recall svideo being present on say projectors
