Yes of course! You will see the android logo appear and you can just answer the call or ignore. :eek: :D

Plus you can use speakerphone and do whatever, then use the notification bar to get back to your call to disconnect. It works great.

Oh, I thought I heard that the first iPhones could not do both at the same time. Perhaps I am mistaken. One thing is for sure: Android can do this with no problem whatsoever.

yup that is the REAL answer. you cannot receive calls while you are using an edge connection. if you have 3g then yes you can receive phone calls while using your 3g connection

That is one advantage to GSM 3g techs (aws, etc) versus the cdma EV-DO... When using high speed data on verizon or sprint, you can answer the phone call, but you will not be able to browse the web simultaneously (even if the phone supports multitasking).
