Though I still don’t have an iPhone (waiting on 3G), I’m drooling for one even more after seeing a demo of wPhone, a fantastic WordPress plug-in that allows really intuitive, full-featured blogging on the iPhone (and even some crappier ones, like my old school Blackberry). Essentially, instead of trying to render the full-bandwidth version of WP, this server-side plug-in changes the interface to optimize for iPhone or other mobile, and then uses GZip compression to enable speedy connections over EDGE and GPRS.
If all of that is gibberish, it basically means that blogging from your phone has rarely been so easy. It looks NICE.
