Has anyone here got the HDMI adaptor for iPad 2? 
 
Do you need the official apple one or would a cheap eBay one work? 
 
I assume I can use it to watch iplayer on my TV rather than the iPad screen?

Not got HDMI but we have the VGA adaptor and directors use it to do presentations on the TV. So guessing HDMI will be same. 
 
Yes can watch iPlayer through iPad on TV

Is it worth buying an ebay version or the legit part? Anyone have any experience with either?

Just buy the legit part. If you wanted an ebay version or a cheaper item that could do the same but better. You wouldn't have bought an ipad in the first place

This was a genuine item but eBay will have same item cheaper! 
 
I'd buy a cheap one personally.

I have it, its ok, although it doesnt really output all that great, doesnt do the aspect ratio big enough imo.

£35 in store, seems to be pretty much the same price for a fake on eBay! 
 
I will just get one from Apple when I am in a store next
