Either way you look at it Microsoft Data Center management did not follow standards or best practices in this failure. In which case it makes me wonder more about the outsourcing of corporate data much less personal data.

Same Ol' Cut & Paste
I've never experienced the problems you describe. Once I realized that I could ignore the Select | Select All | Paste pop-up menu that appeared when I repositioned the cursor, all was fine. I really like that I can double-tap a word and just type over it. Just like a computer… fancy that. ;-)And yes, I typed out this comment on my iPhone mk.1.
bah!
You kids today with your "telephones" and your "text".You just got used to it, perhaps.
I havent noticed any improvements. It worked brilliantly when it came out, as it does now. I think maybe you just got used to it, which would explain the smoother experience you are having now. Its like all those complaints when people first started typing on the iPhone keypad. The complaints have settled down now that people have gotten used to working with it.Mysteriously improved!
I had exactly the same issue which went away for some reason but it seems to me this was before 3.0.1 came out.You've probably just
You've probably just adjusted to it, but I still find it irritating! There should be a user controllable option to delay the time it takes for that Select-Select-All-Paste to pop up. OTOH, as a previous poster mentioned, one just starts ignoring it after a while.Other than that, I'm impressed with the implementation and find myself using it many times daily!
Can't please everyone.
Can't please everyone.They fixed a lot of stuff
You are not alone. I have a 2g iPhone and when I upgraded to 3.0 it was slow, crashed a lot of Apps and then the speaker would act weird and when you were using Safari and moving your finger around the screen it would change the volume. This happened after 3 wipes!! After the update it all went away, plus I did notice that cut & paste works a lot better and is more intuitive in what I want to copy and paste.replica bags
