Copy And Paste, Finally On The iPhone

Apple previewed the iPhone OS 3.0 yesterday and the from what it seems they did a pretty good job. Some of the things that I liked:

• Cut, copy and paste (can already do this on a jailbroken iphone- almost ).
• MMS(can already do this on a jailbroken iphone).
• Stereo Bluetooth.
• Bluetooth P2P, for gaming (woohoo).
• Tethering (can already do this on a jailbroken iphone).
• Push notification, (i will believe it when I see it, this was promised in iPhone 2.0 preview presentation).
• Landscape view for mail and text (can already do this on a jailbroken iphone).
• Spotlight – search for anything on your iphone. (can already do this on a jailbroken iphone).
• Mail multiple photos at a time.
• SMS forwarding. (can already do this on a jailbroken iphone).

Thats not bad at all, I was planing to get either a Palm Pre or an Android phone soon, but with this update its hard to justify buying a new phone. There are still some missing features that I would like to see in the iphone, such as video recording and multitasking to name a few, but I really need a QWERTY keyboard.

But still that’s a pretty nice list they got, it’s long overdue and should have been there from the start but hey what can you say.
