I use Airplay regularly, but not frequently – typically for putting a downloaded or ripped-to-file DVD movie onto the HDTV. If I had some form of broadband connectivity, I suspect I would stream stuff regularly, but at a MAXIMUM of 2.8 mbps, I don't do that at all now.
When I do use it (Airplay), it is pretty d*mn reliable – but then, I'm using an Apple Airport Wifi Base Station, a Macintosh, an iPad, and an iPhone.
