Netflix's iPad app now offers video-out capability

What's better than viewing any of Netflix's Watch Instantly movies on the iPad? Well how about being able to connect your iPad to a big screen television that'll offer some additional real estate to watch all of your favorite content without squinting as much. The latest update for the iPad's Netflix app bumps it up to version 1.0.2 and essentially allows owners to connect the iPad to the Dock Connector where you can connect it to a television or alternate display using the VGA adapter. You can turn any place you go into a mini movie theater if you have your handy iPad in one hand and some kind of portable projector in the other. This is of course spectacular for all of those iPad owners out there, but it would be taken into a whole new level if they can bring this onto the iPhone.

Awesome! I subscribed to netflix just for the streaming feature and now that it's available with video out, I don't have to bring my xbox 360 around or complicate things by hooking a computer up to a tv hopefully carrying a vga port. This was also one of the best apps I recognized on my blog for the iPad and this just made it even better. Can't wait for the android version as well. I don't think it would have video out though...but still. Thanks netflix haha.
