You guys need to try an android phone. I've drank the kool aid hee.
I have a backflip and I'm freaking impressed and you guys know with tech that takes a lot, especially with what I expect in a smart phone that I know I am gonna beat on. -----Original Message----- From: Vivec [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 08, 2010 2:49 PM To: cf-community Subject: Re: iPhone OS4 to support Multitasking and iBooks Apple's multitasking is specific features can be multitasked. For example Audio Streaming can keep going in the background, as can Positional Awareness (A-Gps, GPS etc.). But it seems that something computationally intensive would not continue in the background. Perhaps the reason for this is to prevent the runaway overheating and battery use that you notice. I always thought not having some form of Multitasking was a negative for the iPhone. I have Twitter and gmail running most of the time on my Blackberry while I make calls, send Black Berry Messages etc. Cheers, -Angel On 8 April 2010 14:12, Zaphod Beeblebrox <[email protected]>wrote: > > I was thrilled when I got my iPhone and knew that it didn't > multitask...see, I had a windows moble before that did multitask.
