There are cables that will connect to the iPhone and plug into external video inputs on other devices. Check the Apple site for compatible cables, but buy it from another source to save you money.
Hello,
I want to be able to play netflix movies from my iphone for my kids on a larger screen during those long boring car trips this summer. Does anyone know whether I can connect my iphone to a portable TV or DVD player?
Thanks much!
