I found this one. I haven't gotten it yet (not till payday), but it seems pretty good, and supports 480p, and I can have my PC hooked up at the same time. And as an added bonus, it has a built in TV tuner. Good luck with your search!

I bought a component to VGA dongle for an earlier application.
I got it from the projector company infocus. I think it was around 15 dollars.

quality is better than composite. I'd say minimal quality loss. No link, just browse the site.

but what about games that don't display at 480p? Like gamecube games or any other Wii games that don't use 480p and only use 480i? That cable doesn't support that...
