Yeah, think about the preview of an AIM app. It would be fun to have that running while you turn off the display then suddenly open when you get a message.

My biggest disappointment was we iPod Touch users have to pay…

I’m sure a lot of people will complain but at this point I don’t think Apple will go back and change it to allow multiple 3rd party apps to be running at the same time. This was definitely the biggest disappointment to come from the release of the SDK.

My number 1 hardware want would be an SD slot so I can have additional storage options in addition to what apple gives us. If this were to happen I would end up getting one of these. Otherwise I would have to think long and hard about a switch. Still it's interesting to see how things are working out over time. Hopefully Apple is listening.
