Anyone else anxious to see RTM using the new iOS4 capabilities?

What are you guys expecting?

I'd like to see background sync completion and calendar alerts.

Fast App Switching!

(loading/syncing at start (once) and then always having this set of tasks available without starting the application again (and waiting for yet another sync at start) - a real time saver for me!)

Although Background Sync combined with no/optional sync at start might be a good option for that too?

If these features can be combined, that would be even better?

I agree that an iOS4 version is a good thing, but I hope that Bob the Monkey reminds the humans that some of us have older generation iPodTouches/iPhones that cannot handle all of the new features. Could the update work for us too?

I'd like to see a Major Update to a category+ App, adapted to iOS4 and to the (screen width) of the iPad.

They could at least recompile it so the fast app switching works.

Fast app switching and background completion of syncing! :)

My big hopes are regarding location and local notifications. It would be a holy grail of sorts if the app could be running in the background and shoot you a local notification when you are in .25 mile proximity to the location associated with a todo. IE - when walking near the drug store you are reminded to buy some nodoze for grinding and mixing into your espresso so you can stay awake enough to get through all of your other todos. But really, that would be the bomb. I wonder if the background apis allow access to location? I'll drool at the idea for now.

Yes, iOS4 has a "background location" service as part of its multitasking feature:

I like your idea!

@jason.lemleux, I think this would drain the battery pretty quick, right?
