Do any of you have any (further, since I inquired about this a few 
months ago) advice on how to use the touchscreen/keys for 
marking/copying/pasting (specifically on a MP 780)?  I could mark blocks 
of text, but had very erratic (usually unsuccessful) results with pasting.

Is the 2.0 update any better in this regard?

TIA,

Rory
