What’s the difference whether one receives calls or receives voicemails? People can already choose not to answer their phones.

They also seem the type of company who would set guidelines, if not restrict what can be called, for being a well-behaved background app. It will eventually happen, but not right away for 3.0.</p> I would be surprised to see this right away – except perhaps for select test partner apps like Google latitude – because I would expect Apple at the very least would release APIs so an app can respond to going foreground-> background and vice-versa, to conserve resources.

Apple could simply allow us to choose one or two 3rd party apps to run in the background in exchange for using the iPod and phone in the background.</p> <p>For example, if one wants to use BeejiveIM and MLB in the background, they couldn't listen to the iPod or receive calls. That would leave the RAM issue basically the way it already is now.</p> Why is it so hard to believe his could be true?

Google announced ages ago there would be a app for the iPhone, but now we are months later, and still nothing! What is google waiting for? I think they might have convinced apple to let it run in the background on 3.0! I believe apple will choose what apps we can run in the background, at least it is something.</p> This report could have some truth for the following reason- google latitude!

Just a thought.
