    Multi-tasking and copy/paste for example. But Gerard's HTC Evo vs iPhone4 makes it all clear


  2. Unfortunately Nokia already said that Meego wont compete with Symbian / Android / iPhone. They'll probably just use it for the 'tablet phones' and maybe bigger tablets.

    Symbian already has a huge userbase and they wont pull the plug in favour of Meego.

    Think my next phone (2012) will be Android


  4. Yeh I noticed it's basically just a quicker way of switching apps. Wow thanks Apple for saving me two seconds

    It's just a real shame it took them so long to implement it in a dumbed-down copy of it.

    Oh yeah, got my iPod going - it was 3.1.3 on it so I'm all good with it.
  6. Multi tasking has its disadvantages, gives you a heart attack when you are remembered you have 6 programs open

    I sort of understand that multitasking is not as important as on the pc, but it is very handy when you are in the train. Open up the special train schedule app, while the GPS fixes your location you have just enough time to navigate to u2start. Instead of waiting before loading is finished you can go back to the schedule.

    This all while you've paused your favourite tv show in the media player.

    But it is a battery killer if you forget to close the apps while the phone is in your pocket.

    it's not that. For example I have a radio-app, I can now keep listening to that station while checking twitter.

    I guess it could be called app backgrounding more so than multitasking then. I'm updating to 4.0 right now...
  9. Think the radio app probably is an interface for some native iOS API. Anyway it works, but it didnt for many years.

    I read about it but not sure whether it'll make it into anything and there's loads of other undocumented APIs that could be some real fun. I'm sure if the hardware is there someone'll get it going without Apple. After all, they got Bluetooth file sending working on it unofficially...which is quite something.
  11. They were just too lazy to implement the full bluetooth specs. But it sounds good if you launch a 'feature' years later

    I want my copy and paste. Can you believe how long that took them to put copy and freakin' paste on it?

    And then at the video of it being unveiled (yes, they actually introduced it as a major feature due to security concerns!) the attendees actually stood up and cheered. No word on whether they cheered due to the fact Apple decided to copy and paste something so painfully simple in there, or just fooled that it was the first phone in the world to have copy and paste.

    How, I want to know, is copy and paste a security concern? You copy the word from a webpage, add security restrictions to block sensitive info like HTTPS fields and add it in. How bloody hard can that be? Oh well, it's there but not the point...'cos it's Apple's OS, they add things when they feel like it and not even doing it right.

    Look at the dropping reception issue...a software issue my arse. More like cheap hardware that clearly doesn't work.
