It will be interesting to see if apple's multitasking implementation (if they do that, which is a big if) will look anything like this. Either way, some good work looks to have been done by the programmers who've worked on this.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[brokensticks]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 30th 2009 12:26AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Multifl0w project teaches Apple a thing or two about iPhone multitasking]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/multifl0w-project-teaches-apple-a-thing-or-two-about-iphone-mult/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/multifl0w-project-teaches-apple-a-thing-or-two-about-iphone-mult/</guid><description><![CDATA[It is a bit clunky right now and mostly works. But Multifl0w isn't what is allowing multi tasking, an app called Backgrounder is. Multifl0w is just an interface that allows it to kind of look like the Pre when it comes to what is currently running. Backgrounder has been around for awhile now.<br><br>I would like to add that some apps do drain the battery very quickly. It depends on the app and the programmers could make apps for efficient to not so so much of the battery. But some apps also don't seem to drain the battery so quickly.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brian]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 30th 2009 1:46AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Multifl0w project teaches Apple a thing or two about iPhone multitasking]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/multifl0w-project-teaches-apple-a-thing-or-two-about-iphone-mult/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/multifl0w-project-teaches-apple-a-thing-or-two-about-iphone-mult/</guid><description><![CDATA[I think if Apple does (...) implement a multitasking feature, it will be like expose or something..

We'll learn if we like/dislike the effects on the battery, and adjust accordingly.<br><br>I'd like to see an official solution like this one ASAP, but I know it won't hit until OS 4. At least. They're not gonna rush. Apple just knows they can walk down the hill and "multitask" all the cows, ifyouknowhatI'msayin'.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ill trooper]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 30th 2009 2:09AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Multifl0w project teaches Apple a thing or two about iPhone multitasking]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/multifl0w-project-teaches-apple-a-thing-or-two-about-iphone-mult/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/multifl0w-project-teaches-apple-a-thing-or-two-about-iphone-mult/</guid><description><![CDATA[The reason "why" is the same reason why Apple even disqualify guidebooks from the app store when they strangely use the word "iPhone" inside it (<a href="http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/11/03/apple-rejects-macworld-iphone-superguide-from-app-store-for-u/" rel="nofollow">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/11/03/apple-rejects-macworld-iphone-superguide-from-app-store-for-u/</a>):<br>BECAUSE THEY CAN...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[efekt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 30th 2009 3:02AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Multifl0w project teaches Apple a thing or two about iPhone multitasking]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/multifl0w-project-teaches-apple-a-thing-or-two-about-iphone-mult/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/multifl0w-project-teaches-apple-a-thing-or-two-about-iphone-mult/</guid><description><![CDATA[Apple is worried that users will keep too many apps open, effectively slowing down the entire OS, taking away one of it's major selling points.

If you allow users to multi-task, there is that chance (more like eventual likelihood) that there will come a time because the OS has to do some memory management when the screen...  lags {{gasp}} and then people will realize that it is not Jobsian magic that keeps the iPhone from not having that occasional sputter like other "mere mortal" phones (you know... the ones that CAN do something else at the same time).<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JayMonster]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 30th 2009 8:50AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Multifl0w project teaches Apple a thing or two about iPhone multitasking]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/multifl0w-project-teaches-apple-a-thing-or-two-about-iphone-mult/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/multifl0w-project-teaches-apple-a-thing-or-two-about-iphone-mult/</guid><description><![CDATA[Multifl0w bears a striking resemblance to the winmo app TaskFacade.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Samurai Mike]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 30th 2009 5:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Multifl0w project teaches Apple a thing or two about iPhone multitasking]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/multifl0w-project-teaches-apple-a-thing-or-two-about-iphone-mult/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/multifl0w-project-teaches-apple-a-thing-or-two-about-iphone-mult/</guid><description><![CDATA[Kirikae is a cleaner interface and is free, checked these out over the weekend.
