Glucose Meter Among iPhone 3 Highlights?

Stock quotes in this article: AAPL , PALM , RIMM , NOK , DIS  

In today's presentation, Apple actually acknowledged one of the Pre's most important capabilities -- multitasking. That means that the Pre will be able to run more than one application at the same time.

Apple said the iPhone doesn't multitask because that affects overall battery life. And I find that my iPhone 3G has acceptable battery life only when I turn off nearly everything (like push e-mail, Wi-Fi, etc.). I wonder how Palm does it.

Apple's iPhone 3 will be a terrific, well-received device just like the previous two models. The major message we can take away from today's preview is that Apple's mobile platform is very flexible, but that it's also maturing platform. There were lots of added features announced for the wireless, mini-tablet computer today that appear evolutionary, not revolutionary.
