I have a Kindle Fire HD 7" tablet and it displays on my 21" 1600x1200 samsung monitor from '04 (SyncMaster 204t) at 640x480. My 42" LCD TV indicates that the Kindle is driving it at 1080p. My 23" Samsung SyncMaster S23B300 computer monitor indicates that the Kindle is driving it at 1920x1080. Is there any way to be able to use the device at a reasonable resolution on the 21" monitor? The cable I'm using is micro HDMI on one end and DVI on the other. This same cable works fine on the 23" computer monitor.

Is this an example of getting screwed over by HDCP?

I made a trip down to the Apple store here in Memphis to see the new MBPR. I was concerned that perhaps they wouldn't have one out on display given the demand, or that maybe there would be only one and there would be so many people flocking to see it that I wouldn't get a chance to demo it out. Boy was I wrong, they had 3 on the table and one sitting on a pedestal in the front window of the shop. Not only did they have plenty out on display, nobody seemed to give a damn either despite the store being packed as usual. In the half hour of time I spent with the machine I saw people walk right past them and head straight over to the iMacs and Airs. Nobody I saw that hopped onto on one of the MBP
