In the beta of iOS 4.3, Apple had enabled multitasking gestures on the iPad.

It was said that Apple was considering removing the home button from iPads and iPhone, replacing it with 4 and 5-finger gestures to close and switch apps.

It probably won't happen, however, it is possible to regain this functionality, provided you are a developer or downloaded (for 5 bucks) XCode4 from the App store.

After upgrading your device to iOS 3.3 and installing XCode 4, connect an iPad or iPad2 and enable the "use for development" when prompted.

Once developer-mode is enabled, a new option for switching Multitasking Gestures on and off will appear under Settings -> General.

The free Xcode 3, which is available either online or via the OSX install disk —works as well, but you might need to have a Apple developer account for this trick to work
