Each time you work with one app and then switch to the other, the iPhone shuts down the app and has to restart the next app. These apps don't run as background services on the iPhone, Apple only let's the iPod functionality work as a background service. Apple could enable iPhone's to run background apps (and many of them) but then you would really see the iPhone become as slow as a snail and Apple wants you to experience a fast iPhone. iPhone's are great devices and great at specific tasks but for now they are not replacing computers because of ergonomics (small screen) and functionality.

An iPhone fits in your pocket, weighs very little, can be held in your hand, and powers on and off quickly...all making it very convenient to use. A laptop is usually big and bulky. Most laptops need to be put in a briefcase adding to your travel gear, and take alot of time to power up and down. Getting a laptop to acquire a WIFI signal or get Internet access on the run would be more difficult than an iPhone. iPhones can bounce back and forth between 2G, 3G and WIFI networks (whatever it reads is available) while moving around. Most of the applications and programs running on computers are now moving to mobile platforms too.

I would think a laptop and an air card from Verizon or Sprint would make you far more productive in the back of a cab.
