There’s no tilde on the iPhone keyboard

Open Mobile Safari on your iPhone and try to type in this address: 192.168.1.1/~user. I’ll wait.

Did you get stuck somewhere after /? I looked in disbelief at both the alphabetical and numeric keyboard layouts to make sure I didn’t miss it, but sure enough, there’s no ~. While this isn’t a huge oversight, it may just be a problem for, say, a CS major who would like to access his account on a university web server. But they probably aren’t big iPhone users.
