I recently got an iPad Apple AV HDMI connector. It shows an image, but there is definitely something very wrong with the gamma and/or contrast/brightness of the output DURING VIDEO PLAYBACK (the mirror stuff looked reasonably fine to me, although I really didn't look at it very much yet). Basically the picture during video playback looks very light and washed out, with blacks that are more like dark greys. It is amazing to me that no one is complaining more about this given the very high price tag on this cable and that so many Apple people are supposedly artistic or use their iPads for video editing.
And this problem is across the board of apps I have tried. I have played movies on Netflix, movies directly from the iPad's memory, movies through the Air Video server, and movies through the ServeToMe server, and while all of them support the HDMI, they all show this problem on both my 40" Samsung HDTV as well as my Mitsubishi HD projector. I hope the problem is fixed soon.
PS - Until this obvious bug is worked out, I was able to get a decent picture by setting my LCD and projector brightness way down and the contrast way up to sort of compensate for the washed out image. I guess this will work until Apple gets a fix.
