How To Copy and Paste with The iPhone?
If you are like me, then you’re curious to discover how to copy and paste using your iPhone. I just purchased my Apple iPhone a few days ago and I am extremely happy with it. However, over time I am starting to see certain things that the iPhone can’t do. One of which is copy and paste text or web addresses. To me that seems very silly. My Blackberry Curve had the ability to copy and paste, so in my opinion, it seems very strange that Apple didn’t consider including this option when they developed the iPhone.
Anyway, if you are looking to use the copy and paste feature with your iPhone, the great news is that Apple will be including this feature in their next software update, iPhone OS version 3.0. The software will be released a little later this year. To learn more about it you can visit the Apple iPhone OS preview page.
With that said, if you are really eager to get the copy and paste option going prior to the software update, there is an alternative available. It is an Apple application called PasteBud. I checked out the site this morning and also read a few reviews about it and decided against installing it. One of the main reasons that made me skeptical was after reading a review about some problems with PasteBud. To me, it seems very risky to have my information copied onto a public server and then pasted to it’s final destination.
If you know of some better “Copy and Paste” solutions, you’re more than welcome to share your thoughts in the comments below. I would actually love to read them, becuase I don’t want to wait until the next iPhone software update.

I know exactly how frustrating the lack of copy / paste can be. I’ve downloaded PDA / browser / editing software for my NDS and for some reason there’s no copy / paste.
