Limitations on iPhone

I've had my iPhone for 3 months and I love it. I have found several annoyances. First of all, I cannot view any videos using flash. I can also not view sites requiring Java applets. My attempts to download Firefox are a waste of time. I am able to download Firefox using iMacs at the Apple Store so why can't I do it on my iPhone? Is there a way to view flash videos with an alternate system? There must be a way. I also found that the keyboard for sending e-mails as well as SMS, has no slash(/) so this limits me from sending many of my photos.

You must of known Apple does use flash on iphones, ipads, and i think ipods, so that's no surprise. Forward and back slashes are available by pressing the key above the bottom left key... .?123.. that will give you forward slash... then press the the key.. ...#+= ..that will give you the back slash.

As far as viewing videos, try using the web browser SKYFIRE, i've had some success with videos using it on my iPad.

Thanks. I found the slash key. I will try Skyfire. A new problem arose. Suddenly, I can't upload my photos to Facebook. When I try, I get a message "Your photo could not be uploaded at this time". I have tried for 3 days. Is this a problem with the iPhone, AT&T or something else? My plan covers uploading photos and I have plenty of space remaining.
