what is the downside to this being digital only rather than digital and analog?
From what I have read this is a DVI-D adapter (Digital signal only). What is the downside to this only transfering digital signal? Does this mean it wont play movies on the external LCD?

Answerassuming you have the older model MBP and not a unibody (which plugs straight in) you would need an adaptor that switches mini dvi to mini display port, to my knowledge, no there is no adaptor that does this. in all honesty though, it would be much cheaper and easier for you (and probably get you an equally inpressive display) to buy the older mini dvi to DVI adaptor ($25AUD) and get a nice 3rd party LED/LCD display (Samsung, Dell, Benq, LG all make great ones) or TV. this way, you will get a bigger screen (for the same money) or the same size/quality screen (for much less money) and the added bonus of not needing another cable for audio signal (because the mini display port does not 'do' audio signal)

I bought the 2.66 GHz 15 inch MacBook Pro. In addition to the DVI to HDMI cable, would I be able to output the video to my HDTV?
I bought the 2.66 GHz 15 inch MacBook Pro. In addition to the DVI to HDMI cable, would I be able to output the video to my HDTV? I understand I need audio cables as well, which I have. Does a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI exist to "cut out the middle man?"

AnswerTo answer your first question, yes, with the setup you have, you should be able to output HD video to your TV. Granted you purchased the proper DVI-D to HDMI cable as indicated in the reviews and questions above.
The second question, no, currently there is no Apple sponsored Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter in existence, and if it did exist, it would have been available for you to purchase when you checked out. -

Best Answer:
If your LCD television includes HDMI ports, you can use this adaptor in combination with a DVI-HDMI cable. If you don't have HDMI ports, you should instead get the Composite Video adaptor, and use the standard yellow video socket to connect it. This will be lower resolution, and is not digital. You will also probably want to get a headphone jack to RCA cable from your local HiFi store, to pass audio through to the TV, as it will otherwise come out of the macbook's built in speakers.

All you need is an HDMI cable. Apple does sell them, and they have a great rating.
