Default iPad or iPhone users help

Hi guys I have msn on my Ipad. Now what annoys me is I have to close Internet and open msn every time someone talks to me

Now its only the free version but is there a version where I can flick between internet and msn quickly

And I have problems with not being able to send messages

Also is there any good apps that are like must have as I don't have many lol

If you're on ios 4 and all the apps are compatible, you should be able to multitask, rather than trying to explain click here

Ping! is the best messenger for iPad.

As has been said, multi-tasking is not possible on the iPad.

Maybe not natively, but what about jailbreaking then using the backgrounder app?

I'm not into Jailbreaking and dodgy stuff, so I have noooo idea!

EDIT: Just looked at Backgrounder on YouTube. Would kind of work in that you could close the 'net without losing what you were doing, but still looks a faff compared to proper multitasking on the iPhone, where it's easy to switch "within" the app.

not at all...

ever really. If at home then use either my iphone4 for quick look at net sitting on the toilet... if longer look on sofa then either macbook air on my lap...... or use mac mini through my plasma... or Imac for proper look.

Ipad is just bigger iphone... and awkward and annoying to hold and type on. pretty poo really. APART from as film player when on move.

I only bought one as I am a TOTAL APPLE WHORE! (as you can tell )
