I don't want a push notification for every tweet, I want to be able to flip over to twitter and flip back very easily. I wonder if they couldn't just fix this in a firmware update, though? The iPhone was far from perfect when it was released too. I agree with Matt about Twitter; that’s a big one for sure.

As a prolific twitterer and all around net user, I thrive off information supply. I WOULD want to quickly pull up twitter, or my e-mail in the middle of something else, and the fact that I have to close a program to open another annoys me on the iPhone. The lack of it on the iPad would almost be a deal-breaker if I were in the market to purchase one. yeah, I can handle not having multitasking on the iPhone, where it’s a mild annoyance that I can brush aside as a hardware limitation, but there’s no excuse for the lack of it on the iPad.

If I'm answering an email and want to look something up, I can't. The "listening to music" one is huge, I'm hoping they've got some kind of functionality for that one at the very least.
