Posting comments from iPhone

October 11, 2009 11:42 AM

When the iPhone first came out, I wasn't able to post a comment directly from the comment page, I had to preview first. Then pb did something to fix it, and that seemed to work for a few months, but now I'm back to having to preview first -- is anyone else having that problem?

I noticed that yesterday but thought maybe it was a feature.

Yes, me too. I miss being able to post from the iPhone without previewing.

I like having to preview first, as the iPhone autocorrect often flubs my manatee.

Yes. Seems a display error. I spent some time scrolling around looking for where the post button ended up and couldn't find it. Halp!

ok, direct commenting should be restored on iPhones. (Sent from my iPhone.)

I assumed it was a feature, a hipster-prevention feature.

I keed, I keed because I love!

Working fine from my OS/2 Warp box.

My BeBox lets me comment without preview from one CPU while simultaneously commenting with preview from the other.
