Yeah, but what about "Copy and Paste?"
To me that is almost a deal-breaker. Almost.
However, I *hope* they come up with a "fix" for this. I think this is a *very* big deal that many of you seem to be avoiding. I can live without Flash (I'm positive this will come in an update). I can (almost) live without a replaceable battery. I can *barely* take not having 3rd party apps. However, the lack of "cut/copy and paste" is enormous that some of you won't realize you *miss* until you absolutely need it.
Just some basic examples:
1. Street addresses into contacts.
2. Street addresses into Google Maps
So your friend e-mails you an address *or* texts you an address on where everyone is going to meet up. Think of that scenario. Think of the steps you have to take to get the *address* from the email/txt msg over to the contacts or to google maps. Back and forth. Back and forth. Back and forth. It's why it's *almost* a deal breaker. Almost.

I believe that the iPhone parses all phone numbers and addresses as links, so in your case #2 there would be no typing required, it would automatically launch google maps if you click on the address. I'm not sure though, but I thought this was shown somewhere.
In all honesty, I don't think this omission is anywhere near deal breaker until there are apps aside from google maps that can actually use it. But in theory, I'm with you.... at some point this needs to be added.
