Jailbreak iPhone apps: Clippy

Clippy
Systemwide copy and paste. Clippy adds the long-desired ability to copy and paste text between applications. For example, you can copy an SMS message and paste it into an e-mail. Alas, Clippy does not work in Mobile Safari. Free

Apple, to a large degree with the iPhone, has become the epitomy "Big Brother" they warned us about in that 1984 like commerical. Telling you what you can and cannot have on your iPhone? Take a look at the Nokia line of phones (especially the E71 unlocked from Nokia). I can pretty much install anything I would like on that phone and I don't have to get Nokia or AT&Ts permission to do it. I can even install Python interpreter on it and fairly quickly write my own programs. Can't do that with iPhone.

If Apple doesn't want Bargain Bin on your phone, perhaps they should not offer it as a free app in the App Store.
