I'm living in japan and i recently switched to the iPhone because I was tired of having no customization on my J-Phone.
However there are two features that I miss from my J-Phone, pretty useful features too:

1.Split screen, on my old phone I could split screen 2 apps, it would minimize both windows but at least i could view both of them at the same time.
The main uses for this were;
a)watching 1seg(tv) & writing mails/browsing at the same time,

b)looking at a picture i wrote, maybe of my work shift or something with heavy text and transcribing some info off it into a mail or to search some details on the internet


2.Dictionary link
If i was writing a mail and wasnt sure how to say a word or if the word i was writing was correct or not i would just press the dictionary button and it would split over to the dictionary so i could check on the fly.
I used this a lot with the split screen feature and not being able to use it now has kind of annoyed me enough to pull out my electronic dictionary just to search instead of multi-tasking a dictionary app.

Is there a built in dictionary app/fix for messages/email?


Finally, is there a way to just send the "email" or "mms" address of someone in your contact list without sending the whole contact file?
Like a copy n paste kind of thing?
