Connecting an external monitor?
 
Is there a way to connect the N800 to an external monitor? I have an iMac G5 with a dead motherboard, but the LCD is fine. I had this idea of removing the LCD, connecting it to my old N800 and making a portable display for showing YouTube videos or whatever.

The monitor in the G5 uses TMDS, so if anyone knows how to connect a DVI or VGA monitor then that would be great. I'm fine with using a soldering iron.

on the N8x0 you cannot.

Even the N900 only has Composite video out
