air 3.3 and background ios apps

Hi All

I cannot find some coherent information on this so I am asking here.

I need to write an iOS app that needs to perform a webservice call every x minutes to update the slqite db on the device, even if the application is not running in the foreground.

From google what I could find out was that iOS will only allow your app to run a small time after closing(to finish an upload etc).

e.g. "AIR does not provide support for this iOS background processing model":  http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/considerations-air-apps-mobil e.html#articlecontentAdobe_numberedheader_5

but then later " applications may now support location updates and networking in the background": http://forums.adobe.com/message/4380335http://forums.adobe.com/message/4380335

Can I do what I need in Air 3.3+ an iOS 5.1+ ?

Thank You
