Thee were loads and loads of new features, but the big ones are cut/copy/paste functionality, push notifications (I guess most developers will believe it when they finally see it), spotlight search, and many others.

Exactly. I have two dictionaries, a call recording program, a Last.fm scrobbiling program and a few core programs (like Contacts, for immidiate access) running in the background on my Nokia S60 phone. So the iPhone can't do this? You can't e.g. run a 3rd party Internet radio application while browsing the Internet?

And battery time wasn't an issue, there's hardly any difference with and without all these apps running in the background. As long as none of them download huge amounts of data.


The music player runs just fine in the background of my iPod touch while I'm doing other things. Then again, my LG Musiq not-so-smartphone can do the same thing.

I'm just glad to see that Apple are addressing issues and moving the platform forward. The $9.95 seems silly but whatever.
