iPhone meme

Personally, I’m still pretty jazzed up about the features in the iPhone’s most recent update, but nonetheless, Everything icafe’s report that cut and paste just very well might be on the way for the iPhone got me wondering:

What’s at the top of my list for the next round of features and upgrades to the iPhone?

I don’t think it is cut and paste. I’ve had a few instances when a little cutting and pasting would be useful, but not too many. I like how the iPhone integrates its apps in such a way that cut and paste isn’t always necessary. For example, I recently went into Google maps to search for the local REI. From there, I was able to instantly pop over to Safari to visit REI’s website and look up their hours. Had I wanted to, I could have popped the address right into my contacts. I much prefer this integrated functionality to having to cut and paste each piece of information between apps.

I’m more looking forward to Notes syncing on the iPhone, or the option to have a landscape keyboard in mail and instant messaging. How about you? What are your hopes and dreams for the next set of updates?

For me, the most exciting thing about the recent set of updates announced yesterday at MacWorld was that they were, in fact, updates! This never happened on my MotoRazr! If there are any lingering doubts, these announcements prove that the iPhone’s evolving feature set make it much more like your computer than a cellphone or portable music player. This set of updates, Apple’s future updates, plus the additions of third party development starting next month, will add up to one exciting year for the iPhone!

My favorite new features - WebClips, which will add quick access to any Safari Apps, and multiple recipient text-messaging, which will make it easier than ever before to bring people together at your favorite burrito shop.

What are your favorite updates? What are you looking forward to in future updates from Apple and third party developers?
