The specific implementation of multitasking in iPhone OS 4.0 hasn’t been made open just yet, as it’s distillery all a employment in advancement, but it volition apparently leverage an interface already bundled in the operating system – something like the browser’s cards/tabs could employment nicely.

Background notifications in iPhone OS 3.0 was a one-half-satisfying makeshift, but true multitasking is a feature many iPhone users have been hurting for, and will be happy to see.

We’ve already seen the S9402 as the first lavishness dual SIM device from Samsung, then the D780, and the D880, and finally the Windows Mobile packing P240. Today we get to see the Samsung C3212 DuoS, expected to hit Soviet Union very soon and cost only 3500 Czechoslovakian crowns, which is roughly $196. It’s then supposed to be available throughout the EU. No specifications provided, so can’t assume this matter has 3G or even had quadband GSM/EDGE.
