 /**
- * Implements async bindings to Observable and Promise.
+ * The `async` pipe subscribes to an Observable or Promise and returns the latest value it has
+ * emitted.
+ * When a new value is emitted, the `async` pipe marks the component to be checked for changes.
  *
  * # Example
+ * The example below binds the `time` Observable to the view. Every 500ms, the `time` Observable
+ * updates the view with the current time.
  *
- * In this example we bind the description observable to the DOM. The async pipe will convert an
- *observable to the
- * latest value it emitted. It will also request a change detection check when a new value is
- *emitted.
- *
- * ```
+ * import {Observable} from 'angular2/core';
  * @Component({
- * selector: "task-cmp",
- * changeDetection: ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush
+ * selector: "task-cmp"
  * })
  * @View({
- * template: "Task Description {{ description | async }}"
+ * template: "Time: {{ time | async }}"
  * })
  * class Task {
- * description:Observable<string>;
+ * time = new Observable<number>(observer => {
+ * setInterval(_ =>
+ * observer.next(new Date().getTime(), 500);
+ * });
  * }
