Own a Nokia N900? Peter Schneider of Nokia Maemo marketing has a challenge for you: he wants to know how important multitasking is for N900 owners, and exactly how they take advantage of it.
A new poll at talk.maemo.org breaks it down by number of concurrent windowed applications on the desktop. The poll has a slight design quirk (it has categories for 0, 1 to 3, 4 to 6, 6 to 9 and > 9 apps, whereas 7 to 9 might be better for the 6 to 9) but it’s not enough to undermine the purpose.
So if you have not already, take a moment to respond to the poll and then post your typical use cases that either require multitasking or explain why it is unnecessary for you. Your input could be valuable for future product considerations!
This effort has the endorsement of the maemo.org community council.
UPDATE: It was brought to my attention the poll has already closed. I am very sorry that I didn’t notice. I’m quite frankly surprised it was not allowed to run longer. However, posting comments may still be helpful.

There was some helpful feedback in the mix of recent comments and I hope to hear from more of you. Sometimes all it takes to draw out the shy ones is the comfort of a crowd. Maybe I need to pay some regular commenters…
