I've tried two mini displayport to HDMI adapters to date. Both have failed so I'm wondering if there is a reliable adapter out there?

I've tried the neet adapter which lasted about 5 months and then I tried the cablesson one which lasted less than a month.

Both work flawlessly to start with but now when I plug it in the built-in screen goes blue because it tries to initiate the second display and then it return to normal without the second display activated. It just can't detect it.

It's annoying Apple don't just make them, since they have a HDMI adapter for their iPads now...

Any advice would be great as I'd rather not have to keep on forking out cash for adapters.

Cheers
