I thought I'd read that the iPhone only works with Apple's video cables, so this may not work at all. There was a trick to using non-Apple video cables with the older iPods, though - you simply need to switch the 2 video cables (plug them into the opposite port you normally would based on the color coding. If that doesn't work for you, your only option will be to get some Apple-branded video cables.
