I heard HTC, Palm and Samsung all make phone which do those things.

You should check them out!

that made me chuckle on the inside... sorry zap, not funny enough for a LOL moment.... :D

And to the OP, don't be a d!ck to the people that are trying to help, or to all the others who are understandably annoyed that yet another thread has been created about the same exact thing, and that yours happens to be more difficult to comprehend due to your grammar (or lack thereof). Also, you should have understood the things the iPhone lacked before you bought it since it seems to make that much of a difference to you.
 
Iphone has been out for over a year and still no copy and paste??
Still no video recording??
Still no sideways/landscape SMS Typing?

Have you given this feedback directly to Apple through their website? The more people report these kind of requests through the official channels, the more the possibility of them thinking about doing it.
 
since the iphone has the ability to do many features it lacks,,
then its not a problem with the phone i have

its a problem with the software developers or whoever is in charge of the iphones firmware

The iPhone would be nothing but a metal box without firmware. BTW, I believe it is Steve Jobs who's ultimately in charge of anything Apple sells. :)

I'd understand why people would fret over the lack of copy & paste, but the landscape mode while typing SMS? Jeez.

i think apple does this for a reason


Yes. Just to spite you. Yes, you. Personally.
 
Did you not do your research before buying one? If not, then thats your problem. You should have gotten a different phone.

if they add all those features in 2.1, then what are they going to add in 2.2, 2.3, etc.....
these features will come in time

car companies do the same thing

Very strange they haven't added these things yet yes. I bought inote which lets you take notes landscape keypad.

Amazes more how so many people get so angry at a thread subject. Lots of people seem to have a very short fuse. Why waste energy ranting that there are a few threads similar? I mean... take a walk in the woods maybe, fresh air. Half of the threads on macrumors start off with disgruntled responses by very short tempered people. I suppose it is sad in a way people are being so petty and upset over threads on forums.
 
couldnt agree more

simple, dont buy it

get the other phone that has the features you want.

problem solved.

I couldnt agree more, freedom of choice is an amazing thing! I was an early adopter for the first gen phone, paying $600 for the 8GB. I dealt with the price drop, didnt complain but gladly took the $100 rebate to buy a nano. After two months I finally got fed up with the iPhone for reasons other than lack of copy/paste and MMS. So what did I do? I SOLD IT! I didnt come on here to complain and whine about it. I went back to my Sony Ericsson and remained happy. I now own 2 16GB 3Gs and even though i have had TONS of problems, I am VERY pleased at the progress Apple has made. They have fixed all of the issues that caused me to sell my first gen.

When I have problems with my iPhone, I try to remember that Apple has been making phones for about a year now and already they have changed the face of mobile communications. Look at all the others trying to make "iPhone killers"

MMS would be nice since there seem to be plenty of people out there with phones that dont know how to send the picture they took as an email instead of a MMS. Video recording would be nice but I can certainly live without it.

Now I must go and start a thread as to why only one of my speakers work!

Seriously. These posts are annoying as hell. I think we're all painfully aware at this point that the iPhone doesn't have copy/paste, MMS, etc. Whining about it accomplishes nothing.

yeah very true, very real.
A way to fu*k apple religious too.
To put nervous any iphone user.
 
I had a friend over to the house. He whips out his 3G iPhone. "Can I jump on your WiFi?" he asks. "No problem", says I, "here's the 64 character encryption key" pointing out the text file open on the computer screen with said key displayed.

"64 characters?!?"

"Well", I say, "turn on your bluetooth and I"ll zing the text file to your phone. Just select the text (encryption key), copy it, then paste it into your WiFi settings. No fuss, no muss..."

It took him nearly ten minutes to correctly enter the key by hand.

What kind of wifi security is that? I've never seen the kind that requires some kind of manual entry of an encryption key, even if you can copy and paste it.
 
I'm not sure why the OP bought the phone. The features that he mentioned have never been available on the phone, nor has apple has ever mentioned adding any of them.

Plus, the topic has been discussed ad nausem around here.
 
haha, nicely put.

I feel the same way about these ******s
What do I really need to write a college essay for you guys, I'm writing two freaking sentences. :D



Grammar, punctuation and proper spelling, or attempts at, go a long way when trying to communicate to people through written text.
 
Iphone has been out for over a year and still people bother to type out identical complaints over and over and over about the same "missing" features??

Because that person *cough* I mean that person's complain is pathetic :p
