A new feature found in iOS 5 beta 3 by TiPB is that Airplay is now activated for FaceTime video calls too, that means you can now stream your FaceTime calls to your Apple TV with touch of a button.
The ability to easily start a video call and beam it onto the big screen is compelling. Whether it’s grandpa and grandma, or the team in England, it takes FaceTime from a small, personal experience to a big, group experience at the touch of a button.
This feature definitely takes FaceTime to the next level, we really hope that Apple includes this in the final version of iOS 5.
