Well. At least they didn't call this OS version 4.0.

Can't wait for WWDC '10 to see a new OS with a better interface (at least for the iPad).

And, I think they'll add background apps in the new OS. I think the hardware (on the iphone as well) is ready to handle the load.

Some jailbroken firmwares out there already support backgrounding.

Yeah, but a good number of people don't know how to jailbreak their devices or simply don't want to do it. So, I am talking from their perspective.
