A novelty in iOS 5 beta 3 that has not been discussed yet is the possibility of making FaceTime calls using the AirPlay Mirroring function. Basically we connect the iDevice to a TV using an HDMI adapter from Apple and we will transfer the image from the terminal screen to the TV screen but the camera will continue to film. By transferring the image from the iDevice to the TV, we will be able to see somewhat larger images with our interlocutor, but do not expect a good resolution because we are still talking about FaceTime and front cameras that are not capable of HD video calls.
Apple mentioned this new feature in the iOS 5 presentation film, but it seems that the feature has only now been activated for iDevices. For me, the FaceTime function was useless until now because I didn't have anyone to make FaceTime calls with regularly, so probably for us it will matter too little, but for Americans or companies it will matter a lot. Using this function, companies can make video conferences and if Apple will allow FaceTime via 3G then anyone will be able to be called and initiate FaceTime calls from almost anywhere.
