Hold down the shift key and single tap on some text. It will try and select the paragraph you tapped on.

@RanGT just hold the shift key(arrow pointing up) and drag over the text to select. Just tried it pretty cool.

Can't install yet. I have a lot to undo.
I love it though. Sprint/Palm blew all the rumors out of the water!
No 1.2.1, no itunes, even the "it's not finished yet" rumor we heard here.
Looks like they released plain ol' 1.2 that was leaked by accident weeks ago.

I downloaded and installed 1.2 with all the tweaks that I had on it and its fine. It took some off ( text forward ) but I still have the 5 pages !!

Hopefully i can get some tweaks back on when I get home.

Anyone else notice that they remove the option to turn on and off GPS independent of the location services (where it just uses the cell towers to narrow ur position). It looks like they moved it into 1 setting.

bye bye battery life.

are you able to actually select partial text in a paragraph, or just the entire paragraph? My copy only seems to work when i hold down shift and click a paragraph. I can't select a single sentence within a paragraph click or dragging my finger across it.
