It is a pretty simple interface. It let&#8217;s you manage posts, comments and pages. The functionality is pretty light, but it is a good start.<\/p>\n<p>Cons so far: I have only been using it for a very short time on my iPhone 3GS and it has crashed 3 times. Not a very good track record. I would also like to have more control over pictures that I want to add to posts. It looks like pictures can only be inserted at the end of your post. I would also like to see a little more from the text editor. The ability to bold and add lists would also be nice.<\/p>\n<p>When you open your WordPress blog from the app, you are connected to your blog&#8217;s comments. I&#8217;d like to be able to change this default behavior. I guess they assume most folks will want to use the app to manage their comments more than working on posts.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know how much posting that I will do from my iPhone, but it could be useful. Of course, I can use mobile Safari to edit my blog, but managing it through an iPhone app just seems more sophisticated!<\/p>\n<p><em>Note: I moved the WordPress image to the top of my post via the browser-based editor after posting the article. I also added the ratings image using the browser editor.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Final rating on the initial release? I give it 2.5 sets of wings out of 5.
