Default iPhone Screen on your MyGIG

I have seen many people ask how to get news, weather, video, iPod music, google maps, and how about ANYTHING that runs on your iPhone to display on your myGIG screen.

Requirements:
MyGIG
NAV-TV with AV input Harness (Or Lockpick I guess)

iPhone
Apple AV Output Cable
ScreenSplitr (Jailbreak your iPhone, search Cydia)

With your iPhone plugged into your myGIG using AV cables (I'll do a full write-up later), run ScreenSplitr. Thats all...
You will see your iPhone Screen Mirrored on your MyGIG. Any application you run on the iPhone will display on the myGIG screen. Imagine the possibilities... Pandora, Google Maps, Red Light Cameras (Atoll.CoPilot is cool), SlingPlayer (Watch live TV on your MyGIG Screen). The only Issue I have with screensplitr is frame-rate. It does compress the video output and freame-rate is not the greatest due to the mirroring on the iPhone 3G, but it works and looks good enough for now!

Here is my short video! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUvmgqlg2tY

iPod connector... does that give you video to the mygig? NavTV allows for AV input from any source including your ipod/iphone using the Apple AV cables.

This was more of a, "I wonder how cool would this be" moment. And it actually works very well. My setup mirrors the iPhone screen allowing any application you can run on the iphone, displayed on the Mygig screen.
