[Icon][Icon]The ultimate pointless hack?

• Post categories: Omni, FOSS, In The News, Technology

I use vi. I have O'Reilly books on using vi (the plural thanks to a nice complete stranger who bought me one of my Amazon Wishlist items) When I write code (Must get back into that) or edit config files, I use vi. When I expect to use a computer for any length of time, regardless of platform, I install vi.

So this isn't a statement from an Emacs user, you understand. However...

Is there any hack more utterly pointless than vi on an iPhone?!?

Vi - a text editor notorious for its plethora of keyboard shortcuts. The iPhone - notorious for having no keyboard.

I mean... what are you supposed to DO with it??

Seriously?
