Now this is something I was thinking about today as my phone sat in its pretty little dock on my desk. Everyone's been talking about what they want to see in 2.2 lately, and it's coming, so we're all excited. But you know what would be really awesome?
I'd LOVE to see a kind of desktop application for my Mac that allows me to use iPhone features (SMS for instance) directly through the phone while it's docked. I don't like pulling it out to respond to a text, and that's just one thing I can think of. You can play your music from there through iTunes while it's docked, why not something like this?
Plus, you can probably think of other useful ways to build on this, but it just seems like the kind of thing Apple could do that would just be so awesome and useful. Even if it were not a separate application, but something built directly into iTunes that was accessible only when your phone was connected. I know iTunes is already a bloated pig, but I'd love that kind of functionality.
Is this crazy? Oh, and a pre-emptive apology if this has been brought up before.
