I never thought it would be so easy to take screenshots of iPhone display screen, just a few simple steps:

• Go to the display you want to take screenshot of.
• Press and hold the Home button.
• Quickly press the Standby button (The one on the top which is used to switch off the display. Your will hear the snap sound.
• Your screenshot is taken, go to Photos and you can see it there and use it the way you want to.

This is simply amazing. I am already excited even before I start writing about it. This damn pretty thing is called iPhone WordPress.

Go to the App Store om your iPhone and search wordpress, you will see this as the first result, install it, it’ free, and believe me, it’s addictive, I am already loving it.

This is my first post via my iPhone on my blog.

Update, here are the screenshots:

I finally bought an iPhone, I bought it two days after it’s launch in India. People had already started asking me about plan to change my last cell phone because it’d already been 6 months since I did that.
I am loving it, it does not have a few basic features, I am missing the copy-paste and the message forward, but it’s a marble, hardware and usability are simply awesome. Now when I have a Official Mac, I love the marriage of an iPhone and a MacBook Pro.
I spent 750 buck and bought a rubber cover but ended up not using it, I use a sticky screen guard though.
WiFi, GPS, EDGE, 3G (Not available in India) are faster and better then all my earlier cell phones, then best in this thing is the iPod.
I am lovin’ it.
