The one most-wanted function on the iPhone – Cut & Paste, has been on most people’s wish list for Apple to fulfill. YET, nothing has come out of it. However, a site called PasteBud has came up with one that gives a limited form of cutting and pasting between Mobile Safari and Mail. According to Gizmodo

PasteBud works using two bookmarks in Safari. One prepares and loads the page you are viewing, ready to select text at the touch of a finger. From there, you can copy any text you want and create a new mail message with that text in it. In addition to that, you will be able to copy and paste in the text field of a different web page

Though limited, it shows that it is possible for Apple if they want to implement cut and paste. As it is, PasteBud will be available from 12 December. Do wait and see.
