Default MHL with HDMI and Power?

I've searched around the Forums for a bit and I cant seem to find an answer - so I thought I would just ask.

I found an MHL Adapter that does HDMI and Power, but I can only seem to f t for sale in EU : http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/bizlink-m...ack-p29839.htm

Has anyone seem a cable like this for sale either in the US or somewhere that will ship worldwide?

During lunch I watch movies/etc with my wife on an LCD in my dash, so I need the HDMI and Power to keep the phone going.

Thanks!

I thought all MHL adapters did HDMI and power. I thought that was the point of it over two separate ports. I might be wrong, though.

Yes, MHL standards dictate they do both.

MHL will ONLY charge if your TV is MHL compatible... Which it isn't. MHL ready TV's don't exist yet (AFAIK) MHL adapters are what he linked in the first post, which have a standard HDMI out with a Micro USB in, to charge the phone. That's what you need until you get a MHL TV.

I think the link the OP posted shows a dongle that plugs into the EVO 3D's port, and has two plugs, one HDMI, that would go to the tv, and a second plug to plug in a charger.

I really hope this phone supports full mirroring. I can't wait to get this adapter so I can test it out, hopefully before the 30 day period in case it doesn't work.

If anyone finds one for sale, let us know!

Thanks!

Yeah, I need a cable that will let me charge the phone and use the HDMI - So my total setup is actually going to be :

3D Evo -> HDMI cable to Composite converter for my Avid LCD in my car. So the avic doesnt provide HDMI power, thats why I need an adapter like my original post.

Guys need help!!! Does this MHL adapter work with non-HDTV (HD ready - with support upto 1080i). Because I have a Panasonic Plasma 42" with HDMI port. But, sadly it does not work. Whereas, it works with my brothers HD-LED projector.
Please help.
