Any good tools for copy/paste function on iPhone?
Have you found any utilities that allows easy copying and pasting on an iPhone? I’m an avid user of copy/paste when on my mac and this is the function I’m missing the most when using the iPhone…...anyone out there found a way to fix this?

Try this^^^
That looks cool and just what I’m after – thanks!!
How do you do it if is jailbroken?
We may see an onboard fix in June with iPhone 2.0 software.
Word to the wise!!!: In Clippy (and other similar web apps), the method and technology that is used to transmit and receive the copy/paste for clippy uses an unsecured method for data transmission: http protocol.
The bookmarklets that are created in this web app are sending your sensitive data across an unsecured data connection, so if you are copying sensitive / personal data that data can be intercepted (think passwords, PINs, or other sensitive information) you should think twice about using this type of web app.
Here is a link to a review of another software web app that essentially does the same thing (uses the same method as far as I can tell); I had considered this tech (it is a dream come true in concept), but in practical terms, can be extremely risky to use.
‘Buyer’ beware.
Thanks sndfreQ!......good to know and thanks for the alt. – I was struggling to get clippy to work.
right. I tried both clippy and iCopy, but neither will work with comment boxes like the ones on here….iCopy came closer though :-/
iPhone 3.0 software will have this
