iPhone OS 4.0 announced, brings multitasking

[paddy_za]

no really I did but at the end of the day I want to take my phone make a call, chat with friends send & recieve emails, mms, sms & surf the internet (which is what I do 90% of the time).

I do that on my iPhone everyday... and a lot more

isn't it difficult to surf the web with that mini joystick thing or have black berry also now added touch screen support and multi touch zooming like the iphone?

No I adapted quick to the little "joystick" I do find myself every now and then wishing I still had sbssettings just to swipe across the screen. Nah the zooming thing is cool but not a huge thing for me. Like I said I need a functional phone not a toy & the iPhone is a fantastic toy

The multitasking isn't real multitasking :/

It is.
That's how you can still receive phone calls on Skype, listen to Pandora, receive Instant Messages etc etc. all in the background.

Same here, but each to his own I suppose.

And imo, jailbreaking is asking for trouble. Don't blame the device for errors if you aren't using to how it was meant to be used.
