I distinctly recall a similar argument from MS-DOS users when the early versions of Windows were released... "Background multi-tasking? It'll never work!" Exactly how does you forgetting to close an app when you finished with it have anything to do with not having a 'force close' feature?

Googler think this is a valued added feature, not a bug...but.... Hold on. Let me tell you my case. Yesterday I have browsered the Google finance (http:// finance.google.com) using the build in browser, since browser can be multi window, so I forgot to close the Google finance window after browsing another page. After a few hours, I discovered I forgot to close the Google finance window, it is too late, why? Since Google finance will auto get updated stock feed from Google every minute, so it eat a lot of my GPRS data usage. Today I called my telco to check my usage, the total bill not is even more expensive to buy a brand new G1! That suck! I am really angry about this silly feature you guy at Google designed. I post this here is to remind anyone might do the same silly thing like me. I might consider to switch back to iphone later. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
