Every time a co-worker of mine that bought an iPhone holds theirs next to my phone and says something like, "I just have to do ___ on my iPhone and its done" All I do is remind them that they are missing one of the most basic functions of computing/emailing. The look on their face alters from smug-cockiness to one of all-faith-is-lost in seconds. It's like they expect everyone to perceive it as a superior phone and that they are therefore superior by proxy. It must be difficult to keep you balance on such a shaky pedestal.]]>Jan 20th 2009 1:19PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/20/unofficial-copy-paste-comes-to-the-iphone-again/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/20/unofficial-copy-paste-comes-to-the-iphone-again/Jan 21st 2009 9:04AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/20/unofficial-copy-paste-comes-to-the-iphone-again/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/20/unofficial-copy-paste-comes-to-the-iphone-again/Jan 21st 2009 9:39AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/20/unofficial-copy-paste-comes-to-the-iphone-again/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/20/unofficial-copy-paste-comes-to-the-iphone-again/
Doesn't seem hard to me, and it seems a lot better than having to tap and drag to select text, that could potentially take forever and be a pain in the ass to correct if you mess up.

Well, I just installed this app and it works great! Just hold down your finger to bring up the zoom window, drag to select your text, release and tap "copy". The text appears to the right of the Paste button. Move your cursor to where you want to paste and tap the "Paste" button as many times as you like and Viola, now you can add annoying repeating LOL comments to Digg on your iPhone!

+1 for Jailbroken iPhones.]]>Jan 20th 2009 2:06PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/20/unofficial-copy-paste-comes-to-the-iphone-again/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/20/unofficial-copy-paste-comes-to-the-iphone-again/Jan 20th 2009 3:07PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/20/unofficial-copy-paste-comes-to-the-iphone-again/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/20/unofficial-copy-paste-comes-to-the-iphone-again/Jan 20th 2009 3:10PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/20/unofficial-copy-paste-comes-to-the-iphone-again/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/20/unofficial-copy-paste-comes-to-the-iphone-again/Jan 20th 2009 4:24PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/20/unofficial-copy-paste-comes-to-the-iphone-again/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/20/unofficial-copy-paste-comes-to-the-iphone-again/Jan 20th 2009 6:08PM
