I have to say, sir, that the one thing I really dislike about my iPod touch is the inability to multitask.  Inasmuch as I’d like to be able to listen to Last.FM/Pandora streams and check my e-mail.  But I didn’t grow up mac, so maybe I lack that slavish devotion I’ve heard so much about… ;-p

Yeah, I suppose the fact that I’m mainlining the Apple Kool-Aid has something to do with my opinion.

Good points about Last.fm and Pandora. I mostly use iTunes, which works just fine in the background. But I don’t see why other music apps should be that hard to run in the background.
