It's not a massive deal, but Apple pulled a small slight on us that is disappointing. As we already knew, multitasking would not come to the first and second generations of the iPod Touch, only the 3rd generation, due to hardware limitations. But apparently, being able to set custom wallpaper on your home screen will also be exclusive to the 3rd generation touch. This feels like a really weak slight on Apple's part, since there is absolutely no reason they can't give everyone this feature. They just know it's something people want so they're "making" us buy the newer models. I was planning on buying the next Touch they release anyway, but that's not the point. Very very bad Apple
