Due to MHL support appearing on phones everywhere, you now have a choice to spring for a MHL to HDMI adapter like the Toshiba Regza to use with one of your HDMI wires, or wait patiently for a TV with a MHL port. Both options will ensure that you get the most out MHL’s concurrent battery charging, and ability to display 1080p HD content with 7.1 surround sound.
