I’ve been playing around with Airplay on my iPad, sending audio the the Apple TV using the iOS 4.2 GM seed that was just pushed out. In my fiddling I came across what could be a pretty annoying bug. Switching output devices in Airplay seems to kill your network connection. I believe it kills WiFi altogether. 1. Play a song in the iPod app, I tried it with other apps too.
2. Switch the output of the song to the Apple TV using the Airplay button
3. Switch the output back to the iPad
4. Launch mobile safari and try to load a page. It should time out.
5. Try switching your output back to the Apple TV, nada.
