I think we should start a list of any apps that have been rewritten to take advantage of the new multitasking API's. There most likely won't be any apps that support this until the 21st but we can start a thread for future updates and list them as they are supported.
 
I agree... I like this thread! I wonder if Apple will start releasing the 4.0 Apps a little early like they did with 3.0 (I think??)
 
Well it's not multi-tasking but the latest release of Flight Track Pro supports 4.0. Unlike the previous versions, it will now add flight times directly to your calendar - a new capability from 4.0.
 
Wicked! So looking forward to apps having direct access to the iPhone iCal!
 
pandora and XM radio needed to be updated yesterday, I wish apple wasn't so picky about all these app rules.
 
Flight Track - Live has been updated with 4.0 API calls so it's only a matter of time before other apps start coming out....
 
Little off topic but why does every app that you open go to the multitasking bar? Will this change? I would think only apps that are currently using multitasking would go there.

Technically because its a fast app-switching bar, not just a multi-tasking bar. It's supposed to allow for quick access to your recently run apps.

Hmm little annoying because I now have like 30 apps in the "fast app switching bar".
