I have to agree. Would have been nice to make this extension  
changeable. I work work for a company whos domain extension is .net.  
Which means all of our sites are .net. In this case the .com button  
is useless. But if they had made the button so I change it to .net or  
really anything I want would be cool.

One thing that I find difficult is there is no copy-paste  
functionality (or at least I have not discovered it. For example I  
have an email with the 26-character WEP key for my office WiFi. Would  
have been nice to be able to copy-paste this into the field. But  
instead had to hand write it on a sticky then reenter. The write to a  
sticky is because there are too many steps to jump between the email  
and wifi entry screens.

But still I think the iPhone is very innovative and glad I took off  
early to stand in line for 2 hours. I know there are some stories  
floating around about activation issues. Most of these are tied to  
folks jumping from other providers mid-plan. My activation took less  
than 12 hours.
