If they wanted to get more businesses using OSX, they'd cut the price in half for their computer line.

Of course it can be improved but it need to be well-thought like they did for the cut & paste — people complained about of the lack of cut & paste and now it's the best implementation around, Android fall short.

I think Apple pretty now what they're doing — and they're not the kind of company doing things like: “let's add a task manager because 2% of people want it.”

As far as iTunes LP, I don't know exactly the deal. There is something called iTunesKit that is used to implement iTunes LP album — and I guess the Tablet content — and it's pretty much web standards.

The current iPhone O.S. is bad at multi-tasking. Take the end-user perspective. Once you're used to how a Nexus One multi-tasks you'd find the way the iPhone or iPod touch work odd. And that's precisely why they are upgrading the O.S., O.S. 4.0 with more multi-tasking abilities. Crippling a device on this front because of UI choices is bad. In this day and age, any device should multi-task properly out-of-the-box for a user.

Insofar that Apple will reuse existing web technologies, I am content, but for some things that existing web technologies can be used, why should I have to download an iPhone O.S. app? It's gone way overboard and dragging people into yet another proprietary system.

Open systems have better longevity in my book.

Hi Josh,

iPhone OS not multi-task? I don't understand why people think it's not.

iPhone OS is 80% MacOS X, the only difference is the application layer (UIKit instead of AppKit). The rest is the same from kernel, network stack, Quartz compositing, etc.

The apparent "lack of multi-tasking" you're talking about is a design choice of the user interface but how do you think Mail, iPod, iCal and the Phone apps works in the background?

And seriously, I've never seen a "normal person" that complains about it.

iPhone OS 4.0 will be announced tomorrow.

As far as display magazine instead of the horrible Flash, Apple will use iTunes LP (which is basically HTML5 + Javascript + WebKit); it's not really an alternative web.
