Geek Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 <div class="KonaBody"><p><iframe title="YouTube video player" width="610" height="373" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ZUwmMZF3W08?rel=0&hd=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p> <p>If you plan on getting the iPad 2 (if you can <a href="http://osxdaily.com/2011/03/15/check-ipad-2-stock-in-your-area/">find one in stock</a>) and you’re a gamer, don’t forget to grab the video mirroring cable. But don’t take my word for it, check out this video that shows the huge potential of the iPad 2 to be a game console. Combining the Digital AV Adapter with iPad 2’s video mirroring capabilities outputted to an HDTV gives you a very playable gaming rig. <span id="more-14011"></span> This video is from YouTube’s TouchArcade, it’s pretty long at about 16 minutes but gives a great overview of the potential here. <a href="http://www.macgasm.net/2011/03/17/check-ipad-2-mirroring-capability-action/">MacGasm</a> found the video, and they rightly point out that the only thing to make this cooler would be exporting games to an AppleTV wirelessly with AirPort. Until then, spending the $39 on the video cable is the way to go.</p> </div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/6McGbMAiS44PV1AEY9Evjl5M990/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/6McGbMAiS44PV1AEY9Evjl5M990/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/6McGbMAiS44PV1AEY9Evjl5M990/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/6McGbMAiS44PV1AEY9Evjl5M990/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=hp2ijFY_i0g:KEBQpa9l9dY:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=hp2ijFY_i0g:KEBQpa9l9dY:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=hp2ijFY_i0g:KEBQpa9l9dY:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=hp2ijFY_i0g:KEBQpa9l9dY:D7DqB2pKExk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=hp2ijFY_i0g:KEBQpa9l9dY:D7DqB2pKExk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=hp2ijFY_i0g:KEBQpa9l9dY:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=hp2ijFY_i0g:KEBQpa9l9dY:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/osxdaily/~4/hp2ijFY_i0g" height="1" width="1"/> View the full article
