Printing from iPhone?

[bikertwin]

Anyone think you'll be able to print directly from the iPhone (via WiFi to a networked printer)? Think it'll have the normal OS X printer drivers?

I dunno how helpful this is but my old HP ipaq had bluetooth and wifi printer drivers(built in) that would let me print from any printer on my network or any printer that had bluetooth support. I would think Apple would let you. But the question is why would you want to print from a phone, when you can just sync the phone(hopefully the phone has UMS/MSC capabilities) where you can just drag the file off the phone onto a computer and then print from there.

I guess it would be useful if you had surfed and bookmarked an interesting site, or perhaps quick photo printing, or maps, direct from the phone. I for one would find this useful.

Maybe....however that seems like a feature for more of a smartphone...not quite what the iPhone is aiming at.


Still not thing I'd be against
