Choose international domains on the iPhone keyboard
Authored by: Stormchild on Fri, Mar 21 2008 at 4:29PM PDT

I was actually wondering why the US English keyboard doesn't have .net and .org as pop-up alternatives. I expected to find it there after discovering all the variations in other characters (these are quite rich, even on the US keyboard). Would be nice to see that added in a future firmware update.

Perhaps this only works with European input modes. The US English mode will only do .com, and the Japanese input mode doesn't even have a .com button (although that makes sense, as you wouldn't want to type URLs in Japanese ... the technology to support Unicode URLs exists, but is not widely deployed yet).
