Does your app have a reason to display a number on the icon? A couple
different apps on my phone display it for:
* To-do app showing the number of items remaining to be done
* Calendar app showing the number of birthdays coming up
AFAIK, all that 3.0 added was the ability to set the badge via Push
Notification.
It's easy enough to set as the app is exiting. If you don't see a
reason to use it, don't use it.

Ok I can add a badge to my application icon on iphone. why? In 3.0
did they make it so that my app could perform tasks when it was not
running and I missed the tech note? What is the practical use for
this if you are not Apple inc?
