why are we discussing how android and ios does their multitasking here?
mods: move these off topic somewhere else before it makes this whole thread off topic.

Why ask nokiablog to ask our questions when we can ask them through Twitter or to Stskeeps directly?

I'm not too sure what else nokiablog can add really? Much of what we know is 2-3 days old now anyway because Jolla have been reverberating / clarifying their previous answers from the tirade of misinterpreted internet articles. Apart from whatever have been told already, it appears as though Jolla are keeping their cards close to their chests.

Seems like they only say what their sure of, at least their not trying to make promises they can't keep

Very true.

And if they can keep to the promise of having a handset to show before the end of the year, then I would not mind them keeping their silence until the big reveal.


On the topic of the UI, I'm kinda hoping that it is not as smooth as the n9. In fact it I'm partly wishing for that "almost broken" feel of the n900, that was a big drive towards the modding scene with the QBW threads and design boards. As beautiful as the swipe UI is, it feels a little bit humdrum knowing that everyone else's looks the same.

Or maybe we will have the opportunity to have multiple user interfaces so we can swap between the two (Cordia anyone?) and rekindle the creative side of TMO again?

Yeahh, iOS and Android "multitasking" is better than multitasking of EPOC32 OS, Symbian, Maemo 4, Maemo 5, MeeGo (Harmattan or not), Web OS, QNX and Linux.

Be happy with your own perception of reality.

A Psion 5MX or Revo (using EPOC32 OS with micro-kernel) from 13 years ago is better for multitasking than any Android, iOS, WP7 and even Symbian device.
Long battery life and crazy stability : 2 years (my case), even 5 years without need rebooting.

Android ICS "multitasking" still sucks every day or even hour. I am using it on Tegra 2 & 1 GB RAM.

OS <> hardware. Modern OS <> better OS than 10 years ago.

By the way, it is not off-topic. Some iOS and Android users here are suggesting that Jolla OS should have the dumbed down "multitasking" of iOS and Android. If nobody replies, they will also ask for limited Bluetooth, jTunes (Jolla version of iTunes), no micro USB, no HDMI, no microSD, etc.

There are thousands of useful example acitivities in background which can't run on iOS. Millions of users have great number of different needs.

One popular one : try to download using Torrent on iOS. There is no Torrent client without Cydia...

What’s the definition of a smartphone? Is JollaMobile going to bring MeeGo back? And which phone did James recommend to one of his friends? All that and more in this week’s episode!
Whole thing here
