    Default Copy/Paste buffer size?

    Does anyone know if there is a maximum size allowed on the Playbook for the copy/paste buffer?

    I was trying to do a 'screen scrape' of a medium length webpage to paste it into a document. I seem to only be able to drag the cursor pointer only so far on a page before the entire selection de-selects.

    Anyone else experiencing this?
    Why is it that when your contract commitment is up, the phone you always wanted is now old and the phone you now want won't be out until the next quarter?

    If you hold your finger down over text on a webpage, the cursor controls will appear. It should select the word you're touching by default. Then you just move the end pointer to the end of the text you want to select.

    For really long text, though, there is a point after which the pointers and the selection disappears (at least for me).

    The longest strings I've copied were 1335 characters including spaces, had no issues. Have not (needed to) attempt anything longer than that so far.
