DASH, MOBILE 6, COPY PASTE FROM EMAIL TO CALENDAR STIGLER 12-23-2007

Is the inability of my DASH to copy from an email and to paste into my
calendar a problem with my DASH--and therefore a T-Mobile problem--or a
problem with Windows Mobile 6? I received 2 responses--both non-answers--
from
Microsoft suggesting that it is a T-Mobile problem.

It's a WM6 problem. WM6 comes in three flavors, "Standard" (non-
touchscreen devices like your Dash), "Professional" (touchscreen phones)
and "Classic" (touchscreen devices without phones.)

Only the "Standard" devices lack cut and paste (in the others, you select
the text with the touchscreen.)

T-Mobile hasn't really changed the OS or UI of the Dash vs. the "generic"
HTC version of the device other than inflicting the "My Faves" dialer
applet on your Today screen.

There are some third party things that hope to fix that.

http://www.vitotechnology.com/en/products/copypaste.html though I don't know
if it works with WM6
and
https://www.smartphone.net/software_detail.asp?id=2579 which says it
requires WM6

Just two I found doing a search for Smartphone copy paste
