Then complain to the poster.

Why? You're the one repeating the FUD, and - unlike the poster of the thread - you're a person here who needs to be educated.

Wrong, and you know it.

BS. Keep lying if you want, because that's what it is now - lies. You've been corrected. Read and learn about how it actually works. Tombstoning is essentially cooperative multitasking with precedence levels, and it's the SAME THING THAT THE IPHONE DOES NOW.

You're flat-out wrong. Check the code, build samples for yourself, and learn. Quit repeating this lie.

Wow, right from your article, "so it’s not a true multitasking OS" including "The disadvantage obviously is that developers who actually have a legitimate multitasking need (like music streaming) just can’t do it right now."

Face it, WP7 does now allow third-party multitasking like Android, something I believe you considered to be a fatal flaw for the iPhone.

Nice link...thanks for posting. In my opinion, Windows Phone 7 is a platform that currently has more potential than the competition, but lacks a few key features. Features that nerds really care about with a religious passion but most consumers might not give a rats about them. For the average consumer, a feature like better battery life, fresh new User Inteface, XBOX Live, Office. Or heck, even the build in FM Radio might just be more important than multitasking for 3rd pary apps.
