  While I consider that a limitation myself, in all seriousness, from
what I've seen, most users don't use multitasking, either.  They just
get confused at the prospect.

  But still, I agree, the iPhone's approach to multi-tasking seems
like a return to the days of classic System and co-operative
multi-tasking.  On a phone running a BSD Unix core.  Way to go, Apple.

  When I b*tched about this in another forum recently, some iPhone fan
said there was a package from Apple that did the management stuff the
iPhone can do, without needing the iTunes kit.  No experience with it.
 YMMV.
