The WordPress client for iPhone was released today. This is a test though as you can see, it’s missing a bit of spit’n’polish but otherwise seems to have hit the nail on the head.
Maybe I’m a bit stupid but while I can add images to the WordPress library on the phone, there seems no obvious way to add them to the posts.
[Oh. That sucks. It just puts the images in at the end. There’s no formatting for them. Ew.]
I found I had that error if the cable was connected but I actually got it to connect, but found via my RSS feed it published instantly.

Don’t think I will risk it, I have a new category now too.
I got it to work for one of my blogs but the other give me “nsxmlparsererrordomain error 9” Ah well at least its out and open source to boot. Roll on 1.1
Wow. This is another time when I’m glad I’m not able to be among the first to open their veins! Sounds like a real bleeder.
Images at the end of posts? I guess they see it like a photoblogging tool?! (Blogger, if you don’t know, throws all images at the *start* of posts, regardless of where the damned mouse cursor is placed!)
Please take a pic with the iPhone camera and upload it. I’d like to see what is done with it on the server side.
I have a feeling people will be screaming for three things:
1) Copy/Cut/Paste
2) Bluetooth keyboard
3) Photo editing (lite stuff: red-eye out, rescale, crop)
Depending on Apple, #3 might come sooner than the other two.
Keep testing! I’m very interested in this.
