A hint of search capability on iPhone 2.0

when will we get copy/paste?

Pretty obvious, really. There will be a search box at the top of the list, which scrolls (similar to the 'My Number' in the list now).

Why do you care? YOu don't even have an iphone or an itouch...

Wow a search button. Never seen one of those before!!

Guys, this is going to work exactly like the address bar in Safari. When you scroll to the very top of the list/page, the search bar will appear just like the address bar does in safari when you scroll to the top of the page.

If your at the bottom of your contacts, the little search icon is just like any other letter to immediately scroll to the top to search. Simple and without needing to add any buttons.

Searching contacts on fields other than names would be great! So often someone calls and leaves a message with only sketchy information - At the office in ACT! - no problem - when traveling with only the iPod tpouch - big problem.

If Apple would only give us the means to search large Excel docs, the iPhone/iPod touch combo would be the final solution when traveling.

hey, great job blargKABOOM!

TUAW: The guys who run that website are two of my friends from school, and I just like to point out that you said blarkKABOOM instead of blargKABOOM. just a minor thing!

In addition, I really think that the placement of the Spotlight icon is no major deal (although it being there is); it's perfect right at the top of the list.

The lyrics search seems more specialized, as the lyrics would need to be stored somewhere. But a normal app, contact, or song/artist search should be easy enough to incorporate, and logical to have in a phone of this type. The reason that was given before was that Leopard was going to use different code for spotlight and that would then be ported to the phone. We are way beyond that at this point, as Leopard has already been out for a while. Maybe search will be a new feature in the next generation iPhone. I look forward to a spotlight global type of search, and I hope that we will not have to purchase it from a 3rd party developer, as this function should definitely be a part of the underlying OS.

It would be great to be able to search a section of lyrics, too. Often I hear some lyrics in my head but can't quite remember the song. It's weird that this feature isn't in iTunes, either.

if possible, please spell blargKABOOM correctly, and if you can type in the URL I think our team would appreciate the credit.... http://www.blargkaboom.com for more details
