Well, it's something I threw together in a few hours - very little time developing, lots of time circumventing dufficulties and troubleshooting -, it's not fully refined. I did not think of the detail that the single app content is not shown.

But the vendor mostly guesses what the users want... It would take Onyx less than one hour - five minutes? - to implement the recent task switcher as I wrote earlier (upon long press on the home button, call RecentApplicationsDialog() ); if they did not, they probably gave priority to something else. Probably they were never requested...

To each its own? I understand that's a closed, specialized device. The day you will have troubles (both extensively and intensively - what it does, how it does it) with that still carefully crafted software you will have to cope with it. Today, my limits are the hardware, not the software.
