Hm. I was hoping for the cut-and-paste function and a way to save attachments (such as PDF etc) on the device, instead of keeping the emails.
Sometimes I have the feeling I am back in PalmOS-stoneage when I use my iPhone. In the beginning of palmOS, apps were also only able to access their own databases. I guess the reason to do it on the iPHONE was to increase security by restricting apps to their own “data space”. Well, the user experience suffers a litte bit, and iPhones are therefore only semi-smart phones… google street view and other gimmicks don´t help.
Well, I will keep hoping the best for future updates:-)
Hi CroCo,
the iPhone is NOT a business smartphone IMHO…
Apple’s priorities show exactly that.
All the best
