I would like to have 1080p on my mobile, just so that i don't need to re encode the video i want to watch.
Discussion is locked
the phone being talked about is a reference design from texas instruments. it not only does 1080p video it has hdmi out so you can watch it on a bigger tv. it is the TEXAS INSTRUMENTS OMAP 34x-II

also component will suck vs hdmi.
seriously... the iphone isn't the answer for everything.
I said it would be neat if it could do 1080p. Could it already outputs SD via component.
Well actually, even though component and VGA are analog, there isn't a great difference visually between component and VGA and hdmi.
The pro of hdmi - all digital
The con of hdmi - the higher resolution includes copy protection
The pros of component and VGA - works with more hardware currently in use at the higher resolutions
The con of component and VGA - longer wire lengths will degrade signal
Don't believe me? Do you think there's a great difference visually? Here are some sources:
