I know it was too good to be true...cheater.

 

Clever programmers have come up with an iPhone copy and paste hack that is free and doesn't need an app store application to run. It uses javascript and bookmarks to enable copy and paste in Safari. A bookmark is used to prepare a page with text you want to copy. You then merely highlight the text you want.

 

The application, named Pastebud, then allows you to create a message with the text copied into it, or lets you copy it into a text field in a separate Safari window. The service should work for both the iPhone and the iPod Touch.

 

Jed Schmidt, creator of Pastebud, has nearly finished testing of the application and is "putting the finishing touches on the web site before launch".

 

While Apple may not like that the page gives users access to this simple feature it has long denied them, there is little it can do about the development. Since the item is not an application, but merely a webpage, it is entirely legal. It should work, once the page goes up – that is until the next update of Safari blocks it at least.

 

Let us know when Apple has finished slapping you in the face and we'll buy you a drink.
