I've been looking for some concrete scenarios for when NSOperation on the iPhone is an ideal tool to use in an application. To my understanding, this is a wrapper around writing your own threaded code. I haven't seen any Apple demo apps using it, and I'm wondering if I'm missing out on a great tool instead of using NSThread.
The ideal solution here would be to describe a use-case scenario for NSOperation and how you would use it to solve your problem(s).
