Windows Phone 7 Multitasking Feature Demoed On Video
Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer discussed the future of Windows Phone 7 multitasking during Monday’s keynote at Mobile World Congress 2011 (MWC 2011) — the company has covered its forthcoming multitasking solution for third-party apps on several occasions in the past. As we all know, it will work much like Apple’s solution. Apps will remain in a frozen state when sent to the background and will be able, in some instances, to utilize background APIs for functions such as music streaming. For the first time, however, Microsoft gave an extensive demonstration of a preliminary implementation of its solution during MWC. The demo shows off state-saving and simple task-switching, background music streaming, and it also shows Windows Phone 7?s upcoming task manager UI, which bears a striking resemblance to the “cards” UI seen on HP’s webOS. An earlier update, now due out by March, brings the long-awaited copy and paste features to the operating system as well as some performance tweaks and support for CDMA networks. Everyone is looking forward to the Mango release which will contain IE9, full multitasking, SkyDrive integration, and Twitter support in the ‘People’ hub. It will be a large enough release that it may cause the OS to be renamed Windows Phone 7.5, although that remains rumor at this time. The video posted below is a live demonstration of the upcoming multitasking upgrade due this year. Windows Phone 7 Multitasking Video Demo: Authors:
