  If an iPhone app is running out of memory, it will get a notification.
The app can then try to free unused data to free up memory. (This is
probably even more important now that iOS 4 supports some kind of
multitasking.)

  Of course it's not the same thing (iOS native programs are not GC'd),
but just wanted to mention it.
