I'll have to hope for an iOS 5 compatible update to the AirPrint Activator in the future.
I've got a couple of those other pricey printing apps, but they're a pain in the butt to operate.
Also, original iPad users don't get the iOS5 ability to switch between apps with a 4/5 finger hand swipe, or to close apps with 4/5 finger pinch.

Possible solution here:
Download AirPrint Installer for Windows 7/XP/Vista | Jaxov see the comments below the article.
I'm wondering if iTunes 10.5 didn't play a part in screwing this up. My iphone is still on 4.3 and can't see printers now. Maybe Bonjour closed the holes that allowed this to work.
