Steve Jobs, where is the Copy+Paste feature in iPhone?

Does that mean I must manually type out all the info my boss sent me in an email??

Pocket PC phones and Blackberry has had Copy+Paste for years.

Good luck getting secretaries to copy data from email into contact info.

With all eyes in the mobile world on Apple this week I thought the time was right to talk about what we believe is the best way to conduct a mobile web search on a device like the iPhone…a device with a rich, full screen, touchscreen only. Namely: Voice search. You say it, our speech recognition (running on a server) produces text, the text automatically dumps into the search engine that’s the subscriber’s choice (Google, AOL, MSN, etc.), the search engine returns results. Or via voice, search for any content from your local iTunes playlists.

Using the Apple developer kit, we’ve been hard at work developing impressive technology that make the iPhones capabilities even more powerful. Voice search. Song search and selection. At the touch of a button and simply by saying the word. Over the next few days – as the excitement mounts for the WWDC – we’ll be sharing more and more details here on our blog. For now though, I think all of us should sit back, relax and enjoy the show.

Of course, we believe the most powerful use of speech would be running on the iPhone itself (vs a remote server) and made available to the developer community via iPhone’s SDK APIs.

What about Notifylink? DOES go behind the firewall (secure as RIM with encryption and all …) and will soon have the IPhone client ready (that is what they pretend at least) and supports ALL Collaboration services (Exchange, Groupwise and all others …). Seems that they even have some pretty large customers (Like Air Canada, Sun and Oracle) who soon will be in the reach of an IPhone as FULL supported corporate tool …
