...faux multitasking...

Reminds me of the old Terminate Stay Resident programs, way back in the day (not that I know from experience, as I'm all of 17. We covered them in my IT class). I really like that; it's such a slick workaround.

Yeah, that's more or less it. The only possible complaint I see is that you have to hit the home screen before swapping to another app. If you hit OK to a push notification it'll launch the right app, quitting the one you're in, but if you want to look something up on Google and paste it into a note, for instance, you have to fire up Safari, find what you want, copy, and then hit the home button and launch the notepad. It's not TOTALLY flawless, but it works very, very well for me.
