What question? What are you talking about?

The Apple iPhone was released on June 29th, amid a flurry of press coverage, hype, and strong opinions. Long time TechLore member and super gadget geek Steven Jones frothed at the mouth, and published a three-part Ode to the iPhone in the process. Read his rants at:

• Why I want an iPhone - The "I'm a hopelessly expectant Apple fanatic" article
• The first 40 hours with my new iPhone - The "What have I done? Oh yeah, I'm a fanatic!" article.
• Things I didn't know I'd love about the iPhone - The "Yep, I was right, it's awesome" article.

Eric Brandt, a newer member, harshly countered Steven's iPhone fervor with a list of questions, which I've broken out into the forums. This is question #2. I wanna hear what you think.

Eric's Question

How about typing in a phone number or a note-to-self?

He writes...

Call me "so last century" – but I save ideas in text form.

Can you type at all on the non-tactile "keys"?

I hear that period and commas require a 2nd screen. Is that one of those deceptive "urban legends"?

And I also hear that you can't copy or paste anything while you type. Tell me it ain't so!

What's your answer?

Okay, Techlore people... I want to know what you think! What's your answer?
