And there is gonna be no 55" OLED 3d till 2012 :/..and will prob cost 30,000$ like that 31" 3d oled tv..
Correct. The MHL port must be connected to an MHL tv/receiver/etc in order to get any of the MHL features. Since no tv/receiver/etc that supports MHL has been made yet, it's safe to assume that nobody has one.

So this will end up being a USB port that works the same as our previous USB ports for charging and connecting to a computer. And you will also be able to buy a cable that has micro USB on 1 end to connect to the phone, and HDMI on the other to connect to a tv. It will probably still mirror the device on HDMI out, but it won't charge the device, and it won't let you control the device with the tv remote control.

And I don't know about a 55 inch OLED tv existing or not, or what it will cost, but I do know that no tv has been made that supports MHL. So your current 3D tv will not charge this phone via HDMI.
