I have a 15" MBP with Thunderbolt port and an iPad 2.

I am trying to find a way to mirror the screen of the iPad 2 onto the MBP so that I can do video conferencing on my laptop and perform demos to some of our sales reps that are in satellite offices.

How can this be done without jailbreaking? I was hoping I could use my Apple TV and connect that to the MBP - then use wireless mirroring - but it looks like I can't pass the audio/video to the MBP from the Apple TV. Here are the tools I have at my disposal:

-15" MBP w/ Thunderbolt
-iPad 2
-Apple TV
-Older Cinema Display with DVI
-DVI-Mini Display Adapter
-HDMI Adapter for iPad 2
-HDMI to DVI cable
 
Would my best/only real option be to have access to the Dev SDK and use those tools? Is that even available in the SDK or is there only a simulator available?

I miss veency and my jailbreak.

Nope, only a simulator.

If you want to use the iPad, you'll probably want to connect the iPad to some kind of HDMI tuner/input device (something like EyeTV), though most would cause too much latency for what you need.
