it comes with yellow red and white
yellow for your vids
red for your left(or is that right?) audio
white for your right(or is that left?) audio
those 3 go into your tv
while the 3.5 plug in goes into your n900

Isn't the cable composite video (one yellow plug ) rather than the higher quality, three plug component video?
Hope my tv still takes composite... haven't seen one of those since VCR days.

Will TV hookup to the N900 be getting sound as well?
Because I noticed the cable it comes with is component video only - and since it uses up the same 3.5 jack on the N900, how will the TV get any sound?
What I want to do is play torrented movies on big screen TV.
Thanx

Edit: changed component (digital) to component (analog) due to a correction

If it could have done that then it would have made a really sweet portable HD video player, but I guess they have to prioritize.

composite its fine for me, component out mean 480, 720, or some resolution that they want to expose, what mean that needs more procesor power, so that will take more batery juice.
