I agree with OP, multitasking on this phone is absolutely amazing, and the iPhone 4's "multitasking" doesn't even come close. And having to double press a button to get access to just 4 apps where you then have to slide left and right, just to access your mail. Very finicky.

my brother played with my n900 the other day.
he opened app after app...
at one point, the n900 wouldnt react to any input. it got so freakin hot that i decided to quickly pull the battery out before something bad happens xD
i think he had opened around 50 programs.

That is not multitasking, that is a useless simulation.

I should probably not disturb you in your iPhone-bashing session, but of course the iPhone can multitask. At the core, it runs BSD unix, like all os X machines. It is just that Apple chose to pause background GUI applications to save power.
I don't as in the real world users would lynch me for such harsh limits imposed on them on my server never mind something they brought themselves... Errrrr hang on a sec.....

It usually happens to me only when my device's uptime is more than 5/6 days. A reboot solves it perfectly, but in your case a reflash might help.

I tried taking my friend's Iphone 3gs and another friends iphone4, really didn't like the task switcher since we are already used to the quick transition of the task switcher (especially with camkeyd or shortcutd)....
tried other phones as well... and trust me

@dark_angel85: do you spend more time 'on' multitasking or on the apps?

Pausing Apps in background: fake multitasking
Running Apps in background: limited multitasking
Running and displaying more than one App: true multitasking
I only need limited multitasking on my smartphone, but on a tablet/mobile computer I need true multitasking !
Example: side-by-side Apps (aka programs) taking advantage of the entire screen (and its generous 9in size)

Months back when NITDroid didn't have a snazzy tap-to-install available, I was reading dj_steve's instructions with MicroB, copy-pasted code from the browser to terminal for SD card formatting while downloading the NITDroid file. Might've had some good house music on the earphones 
Overall, just another day in N900 multitasking. Fraking love it.
