With the release of the iPhone 3.0 software, virtually all of the major gadget sites and most of the samll ones are falling over themselves to congratulate Apple on adding clipboard (cut, copy and paste) to the thing. Here’s an example http://technologizer.com/2009/06/17/iphone-3-0-its-here/.
Why on earth is this newsworthy? These same people should have been eschewing the iPhone since its inception *because* this basic feature was missing. I mean, come on people, every multitasking OS needs to be able to transfer user data between apps – Windows has had this for 20 years!
Grrr.
(Of course, I’m just irritated because my Google G1 can’t do it, and… natch… my old BlackBerry could.)
