I have a P3P as well and you have increased my level of comfort tremendously! Thank you for the boost!!

Interesting question. There are HDMI splitters available. One of the things we have discussed is the use of an HDMI TV for use as an external monitor. It seems that with the splitter, you should be able to send video to the Nikon.
