PS3 VGA output?

Now i know it currently isn't out, but is it likely we'll ever see any VGA cables for the PS3? reason being although i dont have one now, i would like to purchase a PS3 in the next 6 months probably. Currently im running my 360 through the VGA port of my monitor (with my PC through DVI) I cant afford to buy an HDTV just for PS3 (being a poor student and all) is there another way to get the PS3 to output to VGA?

damnit, i dont see why sony cant bring one out, surely they must have seen how popular it was on the 360 :confused:

Ok i've just seen a HDMI to DVI cable on a competitor site, if i used this how would i get sound though? ideally id use my logitech Z5500's.

I have an NEC NEC LCD20WGX2 20.1 inch. So is the optical sound port attached to the video cable like on the 360? or seperate? and would i have problems with resolution as i wouldn't have the dashboard options like i do on the 360? or would it just do 720p?

and yeah HDTV's are getting cheaper but i already have a monitor, and as im a student all my equipment is setup in my bedroom, maybe once i graduate i'll get an HDTV but just cant afford it now.
