Netflix has released a new update to its popular movie streaming application for the iPad. Netflix 1.0.2 now allows users to output their Netflix movies from the iPad to a TV or monitor via VGA, component or composite output cables. The Netflix app provides iPad users with access to instantly rent and watch TV shows and movies from Netflix, access existing rented content from their library and manage their Netflix Queue. The Netflix app is available from the U.S. App Store as a free download and requires a Netflix membership to use.

Will the ipod touch connector to stream movies to a tv work with the iPad or do I need to buy an iPad specific connector. I have the one that outputs to the separate rgb and audio.

The video-out accessories that work with tbe ipod touch SHOULD work with the iPad. I know mine does, after having watched an episode of Castle on a friend’s 54 inch plasma the other night! Haven’t had the opportunity to test the Netflix app with the cable yet, tho…
