I want to connect my iBook to a TV, recommend any cables? And where do I buy them?

you need left / right / video - svideo out.
not sure if ibook has svideo out.

Do iBooks have an s-video out? I know the Powerbooks do, which would be your ideal solution. If there's an input to hook up a second monitor (DVI?) then there's probably a dongle or cable that converts to s-video or RCA.
I have a really old TV that only has a composite input and to hook up my Powerbook I used an s-video to RCA cable to my VCR, then the composite from it to the TV. Pain in the ass, I hope it's easier for you.

well there are several cables on the apple site that work with the iBook according to Apple, i know what i need on the tv end though, i was simply wondering if someone could recommend any of them..?

Sorry, can't make any recommendations. I have no idea where the cables I used came from. Maybe packaged with the Powerbook, maybe from my box-o-cables...
