    You just have to make sure it holds the PB up at least 1.75 inches above the table top to clear the connectors. I just went into a frame shop with my PB and picked one that lifted it up enough, but I went with clear lexan as to not be so obtrusive visually (wifey decree).
    Let me know if this helps. Will get actual image this day after work.

    ok, here's what I do:

    1) lie on the couch (make sure all your toys and connections are within reach, so you don't have to get up
    2) plug everything in - the hdmi cable & charger
    3) have fun !

    I took these pics with my 2nd playbook:

    Streaming video on Playbook via HDMI-img_00000090.jpg

    This first one just shows more of the couch and everything I used is on the footstool.
    The wireless mouse will act as the remote.

    Here's the 2nd pic - this one shows a closer look, so you can see your avatar on the PB and the mirror image on the tv.

    Kalemsoft Media Player can stream movies via DLNA (yeah I know, it's local streaming) and it blanks out the screen after an interval to save power.

    But I'm a leprechaun so I'm impervious to ale! The more the better?. Oh and that just got you on the list. You get 10 points for being on the list, -10 points for not being on the list in the first place and 100 points for not telling me you were not on the list? Did I get that right?
