Ipad Operating Function
,----[ Quote ]
| The huge problem is that there is no
| multithreading technology. This means that
| your $600+ tablet computer can only run
| one application at a time just like your
| iPhone. For some who like multitasking
| while using a computer this is a big let
| down. Even the cheapest sub $300 netbooks
| running Linux can handle multiple
| applications at one time and that hardware
| is quite a bit less powerful than what the
| iPad has. One can expect though since this
| is the first version.
