How do I get apps on my Apple tv? In my "Library" listing I have Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, iTunes U and Photo but no Apps. Also is mirroring available with the original iPad or just iPad2 and the new iPad? I did activate Home Sharing on my PC and I suspect that is why I'm able to access my music and all but the apps. I am using wireless WiFi. Thanks for any help you may offer.
IPad, iOS 4
You can't use your apps with the Apple TV, you will need to use AirPlay from your iPad.

I tapped the home button twice, swiped to the right and see the airplay button and tap it but not sure where to go from there to put e.g. Road Race 2 hd on tv screen. Sorry to be so dense but this is new to me. Thanks.
After tapping the AirPlay button, choose the Apple TV from the list and toggle the mirror option to on. The display should then mirror to your Apple TV screen. ((iPad 2 or better required for mirroring)
I did tap the airplay icon and selected iPad. I don't know where to go next (btw, I have the original iPad so can't do mirroring). Please take me from this point to where Road Race2 magically appears on my TV. I did look at the RR2 splash screen on my ipad, but didnt see any reference to Air Play or its icon, so I'm stumped.
Thanks again for spending time with me to sort this thing out - appreciate it.
If you have the first iPad, you can't mirror. look in the control sections of an app to see if it does basic AirPlay, if it does, you need to select Apple TV not iPad.
