A scan converter is required as the mini displayport is digital only, no analog signals. Therefore the adapter won't work. I have one of the new 2.0ghz Late 2008 macbooks and ended up getting a Mini Displayport > VGA and then this device to get an analog signal out of it.

The output is as good as the older method until we get more digital stuff out there.
