Are there any mini-HDMI to VGA cables that actually work for presentations on a projector (no copy-protected movie viewing required)? All of the ones reviewed on Amazon have one star and are marked as scams, with notes that a digital-to-analog converter box is required.

I'm looking at the Samsung 9 Series laptop, which has no direct VGA out, does not come with a conversion cable, and Samsung does not sell a conversion cable of their own.

It looks like this may be the VGA dongle needed for the Samsung Series 9:

It's now being sold on several sites EXCEPT for Samsung's site. The part number is consistent across sites, however.

That is indeed the dongle you need. I just purchased a Series 9 and also picked up the dongle. Keep in mind, this is a proprietary dongle and as far as I know, the only one that will do the trick for you. – Fanzoo Jun 24 '11 at 3:34
