I have been trying to better understand "Video Out" on windows mobile devices with little success. I have recently swapped from an Axim that had video out capabilities to a AT&T Tilt which does not. What I want to know is what makes "Video Out" available to a device? Is it special pin outs and Hardware, or can it be achieved through software and a mini-usb. I guess that should be my first stop is trying to figure out the pin out arrangement on my Tilt. But it just seems that Video Out should be more standandard that it is. Basically, all you would need is some cloning software and a way to get it out of the device.

In any case, I thought this might be a good topic for discussion since multiple searches were not turning up very good information.
