Push and hold on the text box, a magnifying glass type circle should pop up which yo can drag to the point you want
love it love it love it
it's a pleasure to use works well.
mine did crash once when i was setting up voice mail up no big deal.
oohkelly you need to click on voice mail and set it up with a password then it works fine.
bit odd about 24 hour clock again not a big deal
one more thing thats a little annoying is when you fill in a text box on a web site like facebook you can't see what your typing!
suppose some of the things will be tweaked on other up dates??!

Thanks folks got that now.
So how do I drag out an area of text to say delete it?

when typing on safari it sometimes works best to hold it verticly so you can see what your typing.
My purchase docket says 6:07pm (Store opened at 6:02)
Straight home. Connected it to my 24Mbit wireless in the house... She flies.
You tube is impressive - so fast and the screen is so clear and bright!
Used maps to locate my street - took mere seconds, pressed satellite and there was the roof of my house.
iPhoto sync - easy
iCal sync - great
Problems:
1.Address book sync seems to be utilising an old file list. Contacts I haven't had in my address book for years have come up on the iPhone. When I add a new contact on the Mac, then sync again, the new addresses do not show up. Any idea which file it must be using to sync from?
2. When I sync music from iTunes, it either crashes, or says it is syncing but after completion, there are still no songs on the iPhone.
3. About 50% of the time I plug the iPhone in using the USB cable, I get an error saying: iTunes could not connect to the iPhone "" because an unknown error occurred (0xE8000001).
(I am not doing auto syncs and I do have the latest version of iTunes 7.5 (19)
help?

Since no copy/paste you have to delete characters individually
yep that bit is dull... if only because the touch UI means you think it should do it.
i'm in love....it's a fantastic piece of technology.....my only slight annoyance so far was the fact i got the problem with activation with o2 but they rang within an hour and that was the end of that.....i've spent the last few hours just playing on all of it's features and the keyboard is quite easy to get used to i thought it'd be at least a few days before i'd learn how to use it....edge seems acceptable for load times and i got it on my wireless network at home easily....god it's fantastic!
I just activated my UK iPhone on the basis that I will try it for under 14 days then MOST likely cancel my contract as I already have a better O2 contract and a US unlocked iPhone!
First things first - I have some dead pixels - I think around 4 of them, secondly I have a negative black screen.
When comparing it with my US iPhone the difference is astounding!
I really don't know what to do about this problem.
As I changed my iPod touch 3 times and got a dodgy screen EVERY time.
I do not know it if it worth taking it to O2 and changing it as I honestly think that we have ANOTHER bad batch here in the UK!
I would add that unless you have seen a GOOD screen it will be hard to tell the difference but there is an obvious one! I will post some shots comparing my US iPhone and UK iPhone on the appleservedup.com site a bit later.
One VERY VERY annoying bug! If you choose UK format you CANNOT turn off 24 hour clock!
A possible work around is to change the number format to US! But if I do that then all my numbers will have dashes in the WRONG places!
Stupid bug! Fix it Apple!

Im very luck that I got a GOOD US iPhone without even knowing that I had one!
I put an invisable shield on my US iPhone and it feels so much easier to type with than the "naked" phone. The glass screen is very slippery compared to it with the invisible sheild.
UK iPhone has 24hr Clock (ie, 01:24) US iPhone is 12hr Clock.
The US iPhone has better colours, Grey LOOKS Grey, whereas UK iPhone Grey looks like Dark Gray/Brown...
Also when you hold the screen up on the UK iPhone Jay-Z arms almost vanish in the background.
You CAN'T see the dead pixels on the UK iPhone in there photos.
You will notice that the negative black screens have a "yellow" tint to their colour.

US iPhone is a week 38!
UK iPhone is a week 42!
I suppose I could go to the O2 shop and ask then to check the serial of EVERY iPhone!
This is exactly why I decided on a UK phone as I KNOW I could go into an Apple Store (if only one was near me!) and swap it for a new one or at very least get a replacement from Apple which I would not have been able to do with my US phone!
Good thing my US phone has such a good screen!
