Whats the one thing that pisses you off about iPhone?

no copy/cut/paste.

EDIT: I just check all the other responses and see that only one other person said this. Surprising.
 
I hate the keypad handling during the call. I wrote about this somewhere before too, but how am I supposed to type phone number someone gave me during the call? As soon as I hung up, it's gone. Don't tell me to use Note app!
 
I can live without copy and paste although it would be helpful!

What really annoys me is that I can't watch any embedded video on websites despite the iPhone having the BEST browser around - like on a real PC!

2.0 has a youtube plugin but even then if the video isn't on youtube but on one of loads of other video sites it won't work still!

Here is hoping for flash in the SDK or some serious modding using PWNED!
 
Calendar

The calendar... everything is just fine, but for setting an alert, you can't set it to go off at exactly the time an event is at. I always have to set the alarm 5 minutes late so I can have it alert me 5 minutes before, thus being right on time...

No biggie, though
 
That after some amount of time Safari tabs all go "white screen" and I have to sit there and reload everything over EDGE. I know it was reported somewhere that 1.1.4 fixed this, but it really hasn't.
 
although i agree with pretty much everyone else's dislikes, i really hate the fact that i always mute someone when i'm talking to them. it never fails. i don't know if it's my ear or earring, but i'll be in the middle of saying something and hear "hello?" "hello?!" and then i'll see that i've muted them.
 
Thing that pisses me off most - when my friends are in a group, and I have to make a call, and I have 1 bar and it doesn't call, or it drops the call. The $400 phone is a joke about 5 seconds later. On more than 1 occasion I had to borrow a friends cheap little Verizon phone with full signal 2 inches away. I still don't mind AT&T, but damn.:mad:
 
How crippled Safari is, so how many web-sites you can't use properly, either flash, or video, or scrolling frames, or drop-down menus, or something.

I want the REAL web!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Ok, I've got a few...

1. Cut/paste
2. Focusable camera and zoom
3. multi email deletion
4. less safari crashes
5. horizontal keyboard (big fingers on my part)
6. more than 1 step on zoom-in when I double tap ( I want to go in further )
7. easy way to combine multiple listings in contacts of the same person with different info
8. Video
9. Better rates for international (Europe) travel... at least give us a better official (cheap) option
 
I've never understood why its so hard to get descent chat applications...my only guess is the companies are paying people not to make them (to use SMS and charge???) i dont know. The web version stink because they time you out or if you accident hit something to navigate away from the page you're offline. I can't believe its difficult to make ichat or have msn/yahoo make their own (they did for blackberry). I don't care if it drains my battery, thats up to me to manage, i just want it to work.
 
The one thing that pisses me off to no end... the random crashes. :mad:
No reason really, the phone just decides to crash.
Reminds me of my old Win95 box.

Others...
Poor Blue tooth implementation
No MMS
No copy/paste
No mass email delete
Camera just plain sucks
Mobile Safari... it's crap. The list of things wrong with it is too long to write out.
 
All the software issues I can live with because hey, let's face it no one has ever had a "perfect" phone and if they did, then why are they using an iPhone?

What really bugs me is the recessed headphone jack which I'm surprised only one person said. Luckily I can get by my normal commute with regular headphones, and can take an attachment on a plane or something with me when I want the balls of my better headphones. But it's annoying when you are at a friends house or something and someone requests some music, but oh I can't do it because the iPhone's recessed headphone jack prevents me.
 
  1. recessed headphone jack
  2. crippled bluetooth
  3. sync playlists only for ipod

apart from that I am pretty happy !
 
What pisses me off is there is no video recorder. Almost switched to the Blackberry Curve a few weeks ago. IF it doesn't come out soon after the update (2.0) and no one makes an adequate recorder available via the App Store I will jump ship to the Blackberry Bold when it makes its debut.

Another is the fact that my pictures are "optimized" when I put them on the phone through iTunes. I want to be able to say whether or not I wanted them compressed.

Those are the only things that piss me off. Everything else is pretty much getting addressed with the 2.0 release.

As for hardware, I agree with the everyone else. The recessed headphone jack just has to go.
