So what is this thing that Cisco calls “call preservation” on the iPhone?

Cisco today previewed new features coming to its Mobile Voice application for the iPhone. While Cisco is careful not to call it multitasking, a feature sorely lacking on the iPhone, the company is adding a “call preservation” feature to its iPhone app.

The update is due out either late next month or by April. Cisco said the call preservation feature keeps a call connected even if you switch to another iPhone application.

I will be very interested to see what this actually means. I mean if Apple is allowing Cisco to implement this form of multitasking which up till now has only been allowed for system applications such as mail, native voice or iPOD why not others like Truphone or Skype.
