Hi all,
I'm just about to switch from a Nokia N95 to a HTC Wildfire but am sad I'm losing the TV out feature. I've been looking into possible workarounds for this and wondered if there's any way of doing it other than copying stuff to the N95 to play on the TV.
I wondered if you could use the USB output on newer phones in conjunction with some kind of media converter that would work with flash drives etc? I wasn't sure how phones are generally recognised as mass storage devices when plugged into PCs etc and if that would work or not?

Any ideas anyone?
