Perhaps you've missed where the device has the ability to
play its output on a full size TV?

Or where, say, a commuter might want to watch a show on
the iPod during his long (and possibly crowded) commute?
(think subway or commuter rail)

I, for one, am more interested in the fact that one can now
legally download teevee shows and watch them on, say, one's
15" powerbook. The iPod's ability to play those things is
rather secondary, I believe.
