They can do it exactly this way with the iPad (and the iPhone), because Mail and Safari *do* run in the background, constantly. But I agree that more of multitasking and app-switching is missing from the iPad. Yet.

YOUR WORDS: "it hasn't bothered anyone on the iphone". I immediately found an example proving you wrong. If you wanted to qualify "hasn't bothered anyone", you should have. -- Rick |
