Workable proposal for iPhone Copy & Paste!

At last! Someone has the ingenuity to develop a workable solution for
the perennial problem on the iPhone: How the heck do we do Copy &
Paste?!?!
Apple has been really dragging its feet with this, saying its not a
priority right now while releasing firmware updates that include silly
things like "lets move the google searchbox so its next to the Safari
URL line!"
The guys at Proximi have made a very cool app called MagicPad
(currently free!) that has a very nice interface for C&P. It took me
some getting used to, but it works just fine. Of course, as the app
is sandboxed in its own environment, the clipboarded items are limited
to MagicPad only. However, they've thought it through and made this
video proposal for system-wide C&P, as well as other text editing
functions. Its a total of about 15mins, but its very clever and to
the point. Highly recommend you download MagicPad to try it out and
leave a review on the App Store - Let Apple know how highly you regard
this app and hopefully they'll take notice and consider their proposal!
