taskmanager!=how the "os" (or apps) handle the different task
yeah, the webos taskmanager is pretty cute, and some can prefer it to the n9 one, but has someone already said, you also can close with a swipe "a la" web os.
you should really test these 4 devices to understand the true power, and lack thereof, of multitasking.
the n900 do not freeze (webos) or slow down (n9) app AT ALL. so you really have to care about closing every app, or you will drain your battery.
but they are all great after all
about the playbook, it's better simply because the browser doesn't freeze at all in background. webos (and n9) always freeze their browser in background.
N9 could hardly be described as stable, especially WRT many apps at once... (check out at least the conclusion)

How is the N9 better than webOS? N9 was maybe more stable/capable of running more apps at once, but how is aiming your finger at a tiny "X" button in the corner of an app tile better than simply flicking a card off the screen???
As for the PlayBook, everyone knows it's a webOS ripoff. It might be slightly improved somehow (maybe you could elaborate?), but it is essentially the exact same thing as webOS. Which is great.
