Unlike the Hp adapter, it shouldn't need any other cable to connect the Playbook with a projector. Has anyone already tried the solution? Could you confirm that works?
Yes, the item in the picture is a male micro HDMI-to-female VGA, but I think this is fine, because usually projectors in offices are already provided with a male cable to connect an input to their port. The problem I'm concerned with is that you need a power unit embedded into the cable. That's why the Hp cable works. The problem with that cable is that it has a normal HDMI input, so you need another adaptor to connect it to the Playbook...
To me the concept looks the same. I have the HP version and have made it work through a series of adpaters and patch cords. From the site I went to from your initial posting, it looks like all you need is the standard male to male patch cord that (like you have said) comes with most / all projectors. I think you will be good to go with less cost than than the HP
So, I would need Micro-hdmi and then the hdmi to vga? Is there an adapter in between? If it is too complicated I am not interested but I am curious to find out in the first place/ Thanks for helping.
