iPhone 4.0 to have multitasking
By SiliconIndia | Thursday, 18 March 2010, 04:34 Hrs
Earlier claims that Apple iPhone 4.0 firmware will not have multitasking are not true claim many sources close to Apple. In fact Apple is said to have developed a "full-on solution" to multitasking, although no details have been leaked on how problems like battery life, memory use and processor consumption will be handled, reports ipodnn.
It is nevertheless claimed by AppleInsider contacts that the task manager will be based on interface technology in Mac OS X, which could potentially refer to the basic Command-Tab switcher, or something like Expose. Apple has been extremely concerned about preserving speed and battery life, however, and currently limits multitasking to first-party apps such as the phone dialer and the iPod. Users cannot, for example, stream Internet radio and play a game at the same time, or even start a radio app and then return to a first-party app.
Apple might also increase the amount of available RAM on the iPhone to ensure rapid switching times.
