This is finally confirmed. The Apple OS 4.0 will offer multitasking of applications on the Iphone. What’s something to rave about the good news is that the multitasking feature of the Apple OS 4.0 will not affect the speed and battery life of the iPhone, iPad and the iPod Touch. Double-clicking the home button of the said apple devices will now enable the user to view the running applications. Tapping the applications found after double-clicking the home button will enable them to switch from one running application to another. Engadget however describes the OS 4.0 multitasking feature more of as “not a true” multitasking system. The concept behind the setup for the new operating system is that it will just enable the devices to simply run the services apps need in the background and the applications don’t need to do them individually. How everything was made on the other hand is quite effective but there are still certain caveats on the Apple OS 4.0 for IM maintenance. Users still have to wait until another release that will enable users to mutitask conversations and chats on IM apps like Yahoo! Messenger or Twitter. A big but sad news to Iphone 3G owners and older Iphone models: The Apple OS 4.0 can’t be updated to the devices since their hardware doesn’t support the new OS. Only Iphone 3Gs users and late 2009 Ipod Touch users will be able to appreciate the mutitasking update from the Apple OS 4.0 Multitasking Demonstrated at Apple OS 4.0 Sneak Peak Launch is a post from: Daily World Buzz
