The iPhone can do some multitasking (eg. music and web) but defo can't run multiple 3rd party apps at once..

If the iPhone doesn't multi task that sucks. So you can't use google maps and browse the web? or use other apps when speakerphone is on?

haha, Apple users will buy it for the same reason they buy everything though. Toal eye candy fanboy-ism power wut

i reckon it's pretty poor, to me just seems like Apple are attempting to fill a gap in the market that doesn't really exist. No multitasking is probably the worst thing, not too bad on the iPhone but surely very annoying on something they're trying to market as a more portable netbook? Also, you pay $130 more for 3G, and do you then have to pay for your data usage on top of that? Waste of money imo

Haha, I think people go too over the top with apple product announcements.

I'm not sure it is revolutionary, it's just a smart phone with a bigger screen. The best bit is that it has 3g access really.

It's cheaper to get an iPod and hold it really close to your face.

yay. total eye candy

so, the Apple iPad is here - yey or nay?

So here's something random and quite cool, mouse pointer tracking! All it does is record your mouses movements... simple but effective!

The program to try it yourself is linked in the comments...
