Yes it can, and you should be able to find the cable at any electronics store - Radio Shack, Best Buy, etc.   It's just a simple male-male 3.5mm cable...

Yes it can, since it has the same 3.5mm jack.

Currently there is no way to play movies from your TouchPad to a TV.

Manuals for every device are available at the support website.  See my sig below for a link to them.

 

The TouchPad manual is here:
