Just curious...
Basically my question is, do you like pop ups on the iPhone, or not...
No.
There are times that I am so engrossed with what I'm doing, and I get a text, I literally jump.
Scares the crap out of me sometimes.
I keep notification on only because it's just easier to know when I get some text or IM. I'm never doing anything that I can't stop doing for a second when I'm using my phone. Plus, with multitasking, it's even easier for me to reply to the text or IM and go back to what I was doing.

I have mine jailbroken with biteSMS which by default pops up with a box that I can send a quick reply, send and continue within the app.
I may turn it off to see how my phone performs (battery wise). I already have lockscreen info to tell me all push notifications, emails, calendar events and messages that came through, so I might just do that.
i've got push notifications on for notifo, facebook (badges and alerts only since sound aint there!) yahoo messenger, espn scorecenter, rss player, and pmessenger. everything else i have turned off. ebay, echofon, rock band, simplytweet etc..
i've got them popping up on the screen whenever they come in. of course, when i get more than one, then that becomes an issue. but otherwise just have them poppin!
Navi, I notice you mentioned Twitter. What Twitter apps use PUSH?
...well a variation of PUSH, SimplyTweet, Twitbit, etc...
You knew what I meant...
An iPhone with an LED and notification bar would own.
I wasn't asking in a smart a$$ sense lol. I was wondering because I use twitterific, tweetdeck, and tweetie. I thought maybe I was missing something.
I agree!!!
For info..... Ecofon premium gives you push notifications for Reply's and DM's.
