As per Zdziarski, the iPhone takes the screen shot for the 3D "zoom" effect that is observed when you close/suspend or launch/resume an...

You forgot to close the quotation.

I wonder if this will improve stability?

i think some people are not reading the post properly because this is not about the screen shot option, this is about every time you exit an applictaion the phone automatically stores shots of your current screen so that it can do that wonderful zoom out thing back to your home screen, eg, if your reading a PRIVATE email and you exit it by pressing the home button, shots of your current email are being tempararily saved to the iphone so that it can do a pretty little zoom out back to your springboard...

I Remember When "iPhoneHacks" Was About Hacking ... Now It's Just Regular Old News That Nobody Really Cares About ... Make It About Hacks ... Pirating ... Not Mainstream !

i don't think that just disabling that will have an impact on performance, 'cause the screen shots are still going to be taken, they won't be saved, but the ipohone is still going to take it. Probably if the function could be disabled at all, it might have a positive performance impact.

I remember when people used to appreciate someone dedicating their time and energy to developing a comprehensive location of iPhone news. iPhoneHacks brings you hacking news when its available... Maybe it is just me. Either way, I would like to give my thanks to iPhoneHacks for all their current, past, and future efforts for the iPhone community.
(Pardon the mocking opening...)

@DrumstaT, thanks for your feedback, we value it a lot.
@Niik09, thanks for your support.
You are right, we are not just trying to bring Hacking news but everything interesting related to the iPhone because we are iPhone fanboys just like you and like sharing things that we find interesting and would be helpful for our readers.
I agree we have been slower in bringing real-time news lately. Unfortunately due to the day job it becomes difficult to bring more iPhone related stuff to you folks. We will try to address that situation soon.
Thanks for all your comments and keep them coming.
cheers!

I think you guys are doing a great job. I check this blog everyday. BTW, everyday news relates to hacking. Stories about iPhone apps being rejected by Apple, and loopholes in ad hoc distribution interest me as much as hearing about the latest hackery. Keep up the good work iphonehacks team!

Fully agree with Andrew D! Just keep going ... :)
