The problem is that I don't know of any displays with a DVI-analogue socket.

209% of the speed?

I don't see why you don't hook the console up to your monitors. Would cut out the mediocre TV.

My current contract is the same price both with and without the phone (HTC Wildfire). So has my phone cost me 24x£20 = £480 (hey that's cheaper than I was expecting) or £0?
