Seriously? iCrap? Its a phone for crying out loud, stop being a fanboy. Nokia did not invent multitasking, all the smartphone platforms have it (unofficially on iPhone). Nokia has the best implementation right now (IMO), but Apple can change that if they can pull it off.
For the claims of it being the most computer like, its just marketing bu||sh*t, which Apple is great at.

Could someone explain to me how an iPhone 3G with an update is more of a PC than N900? What am I missing? Do they mean more than any iPhone to date?
I'm "really excited" too. Love the quotes.

I just love how many names come out for the competition from this crowd. I want to see something totally original for once.
Multitasking has been in the jailbreak scene for a while. If anything, that scene has been slightly ahead of Apple - copy and paste, multiple ways to scroll through apps, Google Voice, terminal/SSH, among MANY other things the jailbreak scene has added to that platform.
I can't say if OS 4.0 will be what I've been looking for in terms of multi-tasking - probably will not, the N900 has that part covered lovely - but them adding it is not inspired by anything other than the fact that their desktops do it already. Why not the phone?
Now... N900 needs more apps. When they get more, does that mean the iCrap inspired the N900? Hmm?

Afaik, Palm Pre was the first iPhone direct competitor on the touch-screen smartphone market that advertised multitasking. N900 was largely unknown by the time.

Heh, I always had the feeling that Apple implement features only after the advancements in hardware would make those features easy to implement with some extra performance margin. Bringing multitasking to the current iPhone hardware would lead IMO to no less whining and cursing from iLusers than we've read on this forum from "disalusioned" N900 owners...

I considered the iPhone before buying the N82 when it came out, re-considered again before getting a Blackberry Bold instead, and et again before upgrading the N82 to the N900.
They'll keep people stuck in iTunes which just puts me off. The one time I installed it last year to see what the fuss was all about, it had auto startup things going on and looked like bloatware. I am much happier with drag and drop and SD cards
I considered getting an iPod Touch last night but remembered the Tunes problem, so that's off unless I get one for £10...! I don't really want to get multiple non-standard chargers and computer connectors either, I have enough micro and mini USB cables already.
