What exactly does this do and not do?

In the description it says that this adapter:
"mirrors whatever’s on your iPad or iPhone 4S screen".

Then a little further down it states that you can:
"Watch slideshows and films on the big screen in up to 720p by connecting your iPad, iPhone 4 or iPod touch (4th generation)."

But then over to the side there is a footnote that states:
"* Video mirroring is available with iPad 2 or later and iPhone 4S."

So what is the difference?

Also it states:
"The Apple Digital AV Adapter routes digital audio to screens that support it."

How do I know if my screen supports it?

I have an iPhone 4 and have ordered a "New" iPad. So I would like a few more specifics so that I know what I can expect it to do for each.

Use Composite AV cable and Digital AV Adapter cords together to get surround sound as well as 720p video quality?

So I was looking at purchasing the Digital AV Adapter that Apple provides in their store, so that I could connect myriad to my flat screen via HDMI to play movies in 720p (the max the cord apparently allows). I know that HDMI carries video as well as audio through so I would be able to play the movie audio though the TV itself... This is not what I want.

I want to play the audio through my surround sound system and I thought maybe combining the Composite AV cable also supplied by Apple would work? Has anyone tried this yet? There is a second 30-pin connection available on the Digital AV Adapter for charging the iPad and I thought maybe the Composite AV cord could connect to that and then directly to the surround sound just for the audio?

Thanks!

Does this work properly with IOS 6 and the iPad2 and, if not, will Apple pay for the return shipping of a defective product?

I would like to purchase the AV Adapter if it works as it is described...mirroring everything on your iPad 2. However, I read MANY complaints about the cable not working with IOS 6 and that the adapter is not working with all of the apps. I read that the adapter only relays sound/audio on some apps, while not rendering video. These reviews are on the Apple website. So, before purchasing, I would appreciate confirmation that the adapter works as advertised and, if not, and the adapter is, in fact, defective, that Apple would pay for the return shipping.
