as the title says, i'm looking for a cheap MHL cable recommendation
Looks like more adapters hitting the market. Noticed the price at Amazon for official Samsung adapter is £16.99, bizlink £10.99 and one or two other options...
I bought this (18$):

Here's another one 18$:

How can I put it on my TV =P
yes, it supports HDMI out via the Micro usb on the bottom of the device. You just need a micro usb to hdmi adapter.
where can I get one?
I think that there may be some on amazon. I am interested in this answer.

I looked also, it needs an MHL adaptor. Found one on monoprice.com about $15.00 shipped.
Its a micro usb to hdmi, it also has a connector for charging while streaming all those flix to your big screen.
Yes there's an MHL adapter available online. If you want to wait as well, among the docks that are coming out for the GN there will be one that charges as well as supports a full 19 pin HDMI cable. But I imagine that won't be coming out til after Christmas.

I noticed a lot of people are looking for a HDMI adapter but is boycotting Samsung's $40 adapter . I don't need an MHL adapter but for those looking for a cheaper alternative.

i want a cheap wireless one if you find any? i think that htc one runs also for s3:
http://www.amazon.de/HTC-H200-Wirel...HH70/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1342512147&sr=8-1
but 65 € is pretty much for using just for a few times...
Wow never heard of a wireless one before. I think that is a little over kill for me. I will stick to the wire one for now if anything. Thanks though.
no Chinese cheaper adapter yet??
I don't want to pay more than $10-12 for this

Not for a while I think, I've been searching a couple of weeks.

Even Chinese adapters cost $30 now.
I found one for $22 on ebay, but don't know how good he is.

I seriously doubt it will work, the connector is different for S2 (5 pins) and S3 (11 pins), so if it says it works for both...
Maybe the 11 pins also work for 5 pins, but not vice versa

Won't work, unless you buy the $10 adapter from Samsung.

Adapter for adapter? Pretty funny. Or what do you mean?

Yes, there is an adapter that will go from the 11 pin micro-USB on the SGS3, to 5 pin micro-USB, so you can plug in the micro-USB from an "old" MHL adapter.

"Yo dawg! I heard that you like adapters, so we put an adapter in your adapter so you can watch HD video while you watch HD video!"
Then I think it's better to buy this for $29.88
anyone brave enough to try this one out?

I got the adapter for $10 with free shipping:
http://www.amazon.com/Original-Sams...id=1343326078&sr=8-1&keywords=mhl+adapter+tip
It lets you connect your old MHL cable (or a $5 one from ebay) to a galaxy s3 and still work. I'm using it and it works perfect.
Even if you don't have an old cable, this is still the best deal since it's $5 for a 5-pin cable and $10 for the adapter.

This is damn smart. I might go this route. Functional and it save a couple bucks. Thanks
Sorry guys, new to this stuff. So let me see if I go this right. Does it go:
SGS3 >> MicroUSB-HDMI Cable >> HDTV Adapter Tip (http://www.amazon.com/Original-Samsung-Adapter-Converter-EPL-FU10BEBSTD/dp/B0083FYL0O/) >> TV?
found a S3 ONLY MHL cable.
So this likely means that's designed with the correct pins and it'll work

anyone wanna buy?
Hey Guys,
I just found this cool Accessory at Best Buy its the Micro USB/USB Connector Model: EPL-AU10WEGXAR. Like many of you I wanted the Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 to be a full fledge Computer with its super fast processor and Multi-Task capabilities. The way I have mine set up is as so. I bought the Moko Leather Case from Amazon flipped it around since don't really use the camera plug the Micro USB and then at the end is a Female USB that I use to plug in my mouse. I bought a HP Keyboard that I assume was meant for some windows device but I truly only got it because of the size. Like me I most of you guys know the struggle of not being able to find any accessories. The Adapter was only $20. Now I know we all could prefer the Samsung Media Dock with the 3 USBs PLUS charging to work but for now this a inexpensive workaround. Wired Mice are like $5, Bluetooth Keyboards go as cheap as $20 on Amazon, and the Adapter is only $20. So There you have $55 for the hardware not including the case. Im sure theres plenty of cheap options for cases. If you guys have any Questions feel free to ask.

Let's see some pics of the setup.
Hello, does it matter which Slimport adapter I buy? Can I just go for the cheapest?
I bought 2 different ones on amazon. Both work just fine. I like this one a bit better. Better quality and it just looks better.

The adapter shouldn't matter, just make sure you have a cable and TV that support HDMI 1.4a. While HDMI 1.4a is a bit old now, if you haven't upgraded your TV and cables recently you may find yourself in an incompatible situation, regardless of the slimport adapter.
Buy the Analogix SlimPort SP1003 on Amazon for $29.00. Don't waste your time with those cheap ass Chinese made "SlimPorts". This is the official. I bought 2 cheap ones on Amazon and they didn't work at all. Trust me.
