Well, it's my own fault, but I'm done with 4.2 beta's until the GM comes out

Nah, don't worry about that. 4.2 runs awesomely well. Multitasking was great. Like I said, I just had small stupid bugs that prevent it from being used as a production machine. Notes being my main issue. But programs ran fine. Like I said, Skee-ball hd runs so much better in 4.2 then 3.2.2.

Well, not exactly.... Pretty much all ram intensive apps like Netflex, CoPilot, VLC, etc, etc don't support multi tasking yet, so we don't really know how this ram problem will pan out.

Still think this is beyond retarded that Apple decide to save a couple dollars and basically screw every early adopter. Friggen phones were coming out with 1gb of ram while this supposed computer replacement got 256.... honestly..... *rant*rant*

I agree the 4.2 has been very good for a beta so far, but I can not stress enough that you should NEVER use beta software for a mission critical task. If you must use beta software, you should consciously budget the time to redo your work should there be an issue.

I definitely agree. I was writing an important number down in Notes, and it got lost. I should have typed it into my non-beta'd iPhone instead.
