I'm interested in a way to control my iPad 2 from my Macbook Pro. I've looked into a few different ways, but all of them only give the ability to control my MBP from my iPad. Anyone know a way to do this that I'm missing?

I'm nearly sure that it is impossible for now.

Your Macbook's keyboard cannot function as a bluetooth keyboard and iPads do not support a mouse/trackpad input.

Actually there is an app out there (too lazy to search for it) that allows you to type on your iOS device via Mac keyboard by connecting your Mac to the iOS device via BT. However, it only allows entering text into an app...not navigating the screen or choosing apps.
