Um, yes it does. Isn't that the whole point of Airplay?

No one cares how it's done, normal people care only that it works. Another bad day for geeks. Sorry.
Can you describe you experience so far with iOS 4.2? But honestly. Thanks.

Buy Toy Story 3 on my iPad with iTunes. Stream to my AppleTV via AirPlay. Yup, it does all that, without my Mac/PC.
Yes. I tried multiple movies except an old itunes HD movie I bought called "Terminator 2" that won't stream for some reason. It probably has some weird encoding spec preventing it from working. That movie must have been encoded wrong.
Me, my kids and my wife are really enjoying our iPad. And even more after upgrading to iOS4.2. This commercial captures the iPad feeling really fine.
Leave your prejudice out of this. It does do multitasking and printing, just not enough to satisfy your needs, but plenty for other's needs.
As for creating, of course you can create on it. There's lots of things you can create on it, and people are doing just that.
I've put all my apps into folders and very much reorganized my iPad. Love it.
My email in-boxes are unified, and that's how I view my email now. Love it.
I send videos to my Apple TV from my iPad, and it's amazingly easy. Love it.

Prejudice? I have an iPad sitting right next to me. I think I am pretty versed in it.
BTW: Casper Suite 8 was just released today. Full enterprise iPad support!
"Amazing"
What is great about this whole thing for me is that my toddler, every time he sees my iPad, says "Its amazing iPad!" and then tries to steal it from me.
Last week or so I caught him on voice memos saying this, and ended up emailing it to Jobs figuring it might make him smile. I never heard back, and I have no doubt that this ad was in production waaaaaaay longer than last week, but its a nice coincidence nonetheless.

Wow and it should make your comments better? No cares how multitasking is done. People only care about better batery life and that it works.
And stability?

As has been pointed out many times, it is ridiculously easy to tweak OS X at least to enable printing to any shared printer. Do a bit of Googling.
Um, it's always been stable for me, to be honest, and 4.2 seems solid. As with any iOS device, stability issues are more likely to come from apps installed. I've had some odd behavior from Newsrack (my RSS reader), but otherwise I've not noticed anything wrong.
I love what the update did to my iPad. I thought I would miss the screen lock button but i don't. This doesn't mean I like Apple's alternative either, I just don't use it. I find myself using any orientation I feel now. It's not as easily prone to switching unless I do it deliberately like the iphone. I'm just careful with how I use it.
The multitasking is great, I do a lot of writing on my iPad, would love a keyboard for it. Switching to the browser and then doing something else. I also love these adverts.

Undying Devotion to a brand doesn't always equal to un-biased reviews or opinions or experience or knowledge. Are you following me?
Oh crap. Wish I could... run faster, eat healthier, have a bigger house, get a faster car...
Oh but they might be in the future. I want them now. What will I do??? ;-)

I follow you, but you are addressing the wrong person with that. And it does not negate my point about your post.
I knew they were trying to show off airplay at the end, but they took away the ipad too fast, and the "TV" looks too similar to the ipad, and the TV isn't showing long enough. I have a feeling most non-apple-fanboyz didn't get what they were showing at the end. It moved too fast to register with the average user.
