On my n900 the apps that were in the background are not frozen, they are active, if you had a n900 with a screen that size you could do way more. Its cool for glancealbe info, kinda, but not well implemented and missing the functionality that makes it worth doing it.

and yes videos can play while you use another app, thats one thing that they wrote code for, not universal for real true multitasking, like i can in my desktop.
I much prefer Sony's "small apps" solution. They even released a SDK for it, but developers don't seem to support these ideas...

If Android had multi-task I would have switched to it years ago, right at the start.
