Without Siri, this would have been a pretty disappointing announcement. One thing that I have not seen mention of in iCloud is the sharing of Safari Bookmarks. This is actually a key feature for me as I have an iMac at work, home, iPad, and iPhone where I use Safari all the time. This works great now in MobileMe - even to my Windows 7 partitions. Have you seen any indication that this feature will exist? Maybe it will be built into future versions of Safari.
For AirPlay screen mirroring, you need something to mirror "to" -- the only device right now that you can mirror a screen to right now is the Apple TV 2. If it works like the iPad 2's mirroring using a video cable, then it will mirror almost anything on your screen, including when you are using Safari.

I have Apple TV 2 and have updated both my Apple TV, macbook and my iPhone 4 to iOS 5. Does mirroring only work for iPads?

Yes. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4597
Bookmarks are included.
Does the air mirroring require apple tv? And will it mirror web surfing as well as video?

Mirroring works for the iPad 2 and the iPhone 4S, both of which have the A5 processor
