The main difference between tombstoning & multitasking is that one uses memory and one doesn't. One of big issues with the Android operating system is that when the client feels they have left the program, apps remain in the background utilizing resources.

Telephones with multitasking abilities use vital resources and have a shorter batter life than telephones without multitasking. This is the major reason why Microsoft is choosing to use tombstoning rather than multi tasking on phones.

i don't think so. although it would be nice. i am pretty sure that was an option an update or two ago. i guess they want you to stay 14 forever. haha.
