Don't SELL your OLD MHL Adapter just yet!

---

As many of you are aware, the old MHL adapters aren't compatible with the Galaxy S III due to a change in the amount of pins, so Samsung introduced an Adapter to still make use of your current adapter.

Does it not say the price right there... $10.00...

Now I will wait for a cheap knock off to come out on ebay for just a single adapter.

Didn't actually check the link!

$10 is quite a rip off for like 5c worth of materials to fix a problem that Samsung made themselves.

+1 for waiting for third party ones.

Is the micro USB port on the S3 standard for everything else I dare shove in it?

So has Samsung given a technical reason why old MHL adapters won't/can't work and yet all data and OTG accessories still work?

I'm waiting for a gaming dock to come out. HDMI, charging port and a few USB ports, 2 or more.

That would be awesome.
