Me too! actually mine came out to $3.42 with shipping from amazon...they have a lot of accessories for a mere few dollars.
as for the hdmi it definitely convinced me that the playbook was a good purchase. the whole mirror thing made me say wow as it was like having a 32' inch playbook in my living room. everything played without delay. games, videos, you name it...i know other tablets have hdmi outputs but i don't know if it works in the same way. but at this point i'm quite amazed with the playbook's hdmi...i feel like i have one of batman's gadgets.
my only complaint, and it's minor is that most of the hdmi cables are 6ft long. i know there are longer ones available but the prices for those are fairly high by comparison...right now the best app i have is the vevo app which has a lot of great videos and if i want to sit back on my couch and put my feet up, 6 feet isn't going to cut it...ahh well.
dont buy a cable, buy and adapter to turn any standard cable to a mini. i only paid 5$ and it is much easier to tote around. i usually have one i can borrow anywhere i go...the office, home, and other company's conference rooms etc.
