Connect an iPhone over composite or AV to an HDTV. The picture quality is standard to the TV, excellent playing it back to the iPhone because of compacting. You stream back and forth over Airplay, oh jeez, even worse. You'll have to find an AV to HDMI cable to get that good picture you'd find on other devices with HDMI-out. The N8 can stream 720p or link it perfectly over HDMI.

Google TV is a.... TV! Are you capable of holding a discussion? I asked you to name me a currently available phone which offers a better connectivity solution than the N8. The N8 deserves a lot of credit here, it is funny how haters will try to make everything this phone offers sound worthless. HDMI is a good thing and I will bet you anything more phones will offer this feature over time.

No. So according to your Nokia bashing friend the iphone 4 is now terrible. It's almost as if everyone who was let down by the education system become Nokia bashers as a hobby :)

If you want to stream 1080p with no video degradation or chopiness, you would connect an HDMI cable from an HDMI device, to an HDMI TV. That's how you get HD Quality.

                      If you stream video from your TV to your device, it doesn't matter. Since the resolution is lower, it will compact the picture and you won't tell the difference. But this isn't the case the other way around.

                      And even if you don't wanna do that (or hilariously don't agree), the N8 supports UPnP/DLNA streaming as well.

                              Galaxy only 10million in 7 months.
                              By this way n8 will reach 10million within 4 months and 16 million(1.6crores) in 8months and 20 million in 10months.
                              This is the fact whether android f**** believe it or not.
                              can we except figures like this from N8 in 2011.
                              Long live N8.

                                        People queued overnight to get iphone4. Well done them. Very mature. Just the kind of zombie following I associate with iphone users. NOTHING to be proud of.

                                        You are suggesting iphone is better than N8 because it has sold more. I am suggesting N8 is better because of greater functionality. Which do you think is a better measure? Well done Apple - in terms of advertising ONLY. Good hype. That's all.

                                        Oh the other day I watched Dr. Who on iplayer on my TV through my N8 connected via HDMI. Was very glad not to have to lug my laptop around. Maybe iphone 6 will have this feature in a few years and then all ifans will say what a great feature it is.
