The feature is said to greatly utilize a much improved "Home on iPod" Mac OS X software technology, which is still under development by the iPod maker."<br /><br />"It works a bit like the ... voice recording feature," the source said. "When a user connects one end of the video-cable into the iPod's new dock connector and the other end into the TV, it will switch the iPod into video mode."<br /><br />Sounds cool, but based on this information, it looks like iPod4 is a long way off, and most likely won't ship until sometime in the fall of this year at the earliest. :(
