So an idea just occurred to me. I noticed that I've been keeping Facebook open as its own separate page in safari. So every time I press the new page button I have it there available as well as other pages. Now think about apps that we used on our iPhone but now the site itself may suffice (Facebook, news sites, eBay, etc) and you can always have the site open in a window. Some sites don't work great but they just need some tinkering and we all know of the html5 sites that are already there. I think that we are going to start seeing the web be the focus, rather than apps (although they will be just as important for work tasks and games.) And I don't know much about streaming sites and if it'd be possible, but how great would it be to have pandora or any other radio streaming straight firm safari and playing when exiting safari. I know you can't switch between these sites and apps but I don't find myself needing to as I'm usually playing game and don't need the web.

But honestly, this thing is ridiculously fast and I think clicking the home button and hitting safari/iPod/yourapp is going to be just as fast as any multi-tasking feature they implement. I am really starting to see how great of a device its going to be. I'm interested to see what apple has to bring to the table on Thursday.
