Hello All, do any of youknow a way to hook up an iPad2 to either a computer or an LCD projector that will show both the home screen and apps etc. I have heard many claims that it can be done, but how do you actually do it? I am not against making additional purchases of cables and equipment if necessary. thanks.

You need the iPad VGA adapter. You can purchase this from Apple.com for around $29.99 USD. After you purchase it, connect it to where you plug in your iPad to charge and then connect the VGA (this should be plugged into your projector).

thanks folks, I have acquired the proper adapter, and it now works!
You also have to make sure the apps support video out. There's not that many that do, actually.
