Before I came across this thread, I had already ordered the following connectivity adapter at deal extreme:
http://www.dx.com/p/129616
It has composite, hdmi, sd, micro-sd, usb, and sync all in one.
Today it arrived, so I gave it a test-run, and yes, unfortunately SD + HDMI at the same time doesn't work.
However, the composite video-out does work while an SD card is plugged in. I was able to play a video from the the SD card on the TV using this. (from iFile)
This is better than nothing and I'm already quite appy with this. I'm going to use this as a replacement for my Archos mediaplayer, which I could connect to a tv, and that was also using composite. And if I really want to use the HDMI, I'll just copy what I want to watch from the SD card to the iPad.

PS
I'll test later against the nightlies to see if the composite also works from xbmc with the sdcard in it.
