Can you download iPhone apps on an iPad?

I didn't realize about the gestures, but the multitasking is true. 512MB of RAM isn't capable of running multiple apps at once. Instead, it stores the data in the background, so it resumes were you left off. That's very different from running multiple apps at once. The downsides are mostly speed, but it can also cause other problems.
