I had a BlackBerry before my 3G so I am thrilled to have it on this phone too! :-D

Yes Copy and Paste is extremely handy. Especially when selecting all the text.

I didn't expect to use it nearly as often as I do. Very handy.

I agree. When I initially saw it on the list I didnt get too excited but now that i have it I use it constantly. Makes things go a lot quicker.

The Select mechanism alone is very useful, if only for deleting blocks of text (i.e. select then delete the selection). Sure beats holding down the delete key and waiting.

But yeah even though I've gotten used to not having copy & paste over the past year and a half, there are many, many places where it comes in handy. Heck, even just pasting your name when you configure your email accounts (so you don't have to retype your name in every single account) is handy.

I missed it a lot. The one thing I've missed most about my BlackBerry is copy, cut & paste.

I'm surprised at how much I actually haven't had to use it. Granted, I grew very used to not having it, so I have to kill some old habits before fully embracing the Cut/Copy/Paste features.
