One way Apple screws iPhone users ... OK, more than one ... but the brains in Cupertino appear to be working on it
- You can watch YouTube videos on the iPhone, but you don't have Flash in the Web browser, but it's coming
- There's no Java in iPhone-ville, but Sun sure wants to put it there
- You can't create or edit documents (say what?) on the iPhone. You can't even cut and paste (what the f---?). Every other smartphone has the excellent DocumentsToGo, which reads, writes and even creates docments and spreadsheets in a plethora of MS Office formats. Even the Blackberry is getting DocumentsToGo.
- According to the iPhone Blog, things that still stink in the iPhone 3G include: crappy camera, no video recording, not enough storage.
So if you want to really use your iPhone as a substitute for a laptop computer, even in small doses, you'll have a hell of a time working with actual files. But there is a way, which I will reveal in the next Click post, a mere five hours from now.
