[...] hit this summer. It’s not likely a “point version” but a full step forward, which equates to potentially new and innovative features. While I can’t predict what those features will be, a music subscription service isn’t [...]

I think the solution would be to have that bar bring up an iPhone version of the App Switcher. It seems to make the most sense without having to rework a lot of the UI.

Personally I’m okay with Apple taking as much time as they need to get this working just right so that it doesn’t rob my precious iPhone of even more battery life or causing the thing to burn up in my hands because it’s trying to do a million things at the same time.

I think people just need to calm down and realize that we can’t expect to have every feature that’s available on a huge, well ventilated desktop computer. I think we’re too spoiled and expect too much. That doesn’t mean Apple shouldn’t improve and/or innovate even further but with each new improvement there’s a price to pay.

I’m sure I won’t be popular with that comment but I just think these devices already do so much that a majority of us don’t even use that adding more features that could mean dealing with more issues.

I had heard a rumor that microsoft is releasing a windows mobile 7, and that, like apple, they will be eliminating multitasking. Which practically means that apple wont add multitasking since other companies are following them, leaders arent followers right? This actually proves that they wont add multitasking but dont get me wrong because I would love nothing more than jultiasking on my iphone

Think of the phone running in the background – the green bar at the top lets you get back to that ‘app’. I don’t know of any other app that does this – I haven’t tried Nike+. The other background example is when using iPod. I can click twice on the home button to access music controls.

I suppose the general point is valid – the UI needs a tweak before it can handle a variety of apps and switching between them

This is going to be incredible. I am hoping that iPhone can regain its edge back from other smartphones, and this looks like just the ticket!

MLB.com At Bat 2010 has background audio, so that’s the only multi-tasking I need.
