btw. Even single tasking is sometimes bit jerky (low fps on animations, animation stutters, slow rotation, kinetic scrolling in photo/albums) :|

Actually what Apple has made is quite clever. They can probably add true multitasking to their product at anytime. Has anyone really thought about that?
sure they can. and they will. but they play their game beautifully (which is often not to the benefit of customers). put it this way: if you live in a society that hasn't invened the wheel, and you just happened to do so, would you just start selling it? i wouldn't. i'd offer a square at first, then an octagon etc, all under the desguise of "we're working very hard at improving the performance", then cash in.

too many fools out there that know crap about business and expect everything for free.
