Hands-On with Pandora and iOS 4 [VIDEO]

Now that iOS 4 is here, we wanted to take a look at some of the coolest new features. Multitasking has long been one of the most-requested features for the iPhone, and one application scenario has consistently been used to argue for multitasking support: Pandora.

While users have always been able to listen to music while doing other tasks using the built-in iPod app, device owners who prefer to use a streaming service like Pandora haven’t been able to do so. That can make long trips — you know, those occasions where you might want to read a book or group of articles and listen to music — pretty painful.

Fortunately, PandoraPandoraPandora [iTunes link] is fully supported in iOS 4. We’ve put together this video illustrating how Pandora works on iOS 4.

As you can see below, the application works great and integrates ingeniously with the iPhone’s new app switcher function. To quote The Office, “This is totally going to change the way I work out.” What do you think of the new Pandora?
