I just got a 26″ Toshiba 720p LCD TV with 2 HDMI input ports and a VGA input. I will be getting my ThinkPad soon and I want to hook it up to my tv, so I was wondering what types of cables (VGA/DVI/HDMI) will work in connecting the two.
NOTE: I am open to using converters if it will give me better picture quality and is somewhat reasonable in price.

There is a VGA out on the T400.
If you pay for a dock then there is a DVI output on the dock.
For 720p I would just go with the VGA connection. DVI/HDMI will not be that much better.
A VGA to HDMI converter is a total waste of money if you have a VGA input on the TV. All it can do is duplicate the circuits that are in your TV and I would suspect that the ones in the TV are hugher quality than the ones in a converter.
