Message: [QUOTE="Neal Culiner, post: 19068, member: 1"] Andy, I just assume that since those are always running, i.e. phone service, text messaging, e-mail, leave them alone. They will restart instantly, I believe, so it's up to you. The moral of the story is to help manage the memory as obviously this concept is not yet working well for Apple. This is something Microsoft had with Windows Mobile, keeping apps running in the background for faster startup, Android has it where it will auto-kill apps as needed, etc. Interesting concept but I personally preferred OS 3.x where the app just closed. They did this to allow background tasks to run, which is fine, but for apps like Logbook Pro that don't use background processing I'd prefer the app to just close until next use. The startup may take 2 seconds longer, but in the end we wouldn't have the issues with iOS 4 that we have now. My $.02. [/QUOTE]
