"An awful lot of very hard work went into making iOS work like this. It’s a huge technical advantage that iOS holds over Android."
It would be good if Gruber just stuck to cheering Apple moves, because he shows his ignorance when he goes outside of the lines.
Android includes process freezing and, in a worst case of memory exhaustion, dehydration/rehydration. What Apple later added is virtually identical to what Android had already done in v1.0. Samsung for some odd reason buys the gimmick of process managers and aggressively kills background apps -- even when there is an overwhelming surplus of free memory -- but that doesn't make it a problem of Android.
