when i use my droid x (ugh, i cant wait to get the verizon iphone) as a hotspot and have wifi-encryption enabled, my ipad (mainly when using pandora) will end the connection and i have to go into setting and search for my X, then re-enter my key phrase. But, when i dont use the encryption it finds it fine. and yes, i have my ipad set to automaticly connect to my X.
