Are you ready for a new copy-paste holivar that will excite the masses for another year or two? Fine. Microsoft has just said in questions and answers on the MIX10 that under no circumstances will the WP7 Series support the clipboard ... so. It's quite ironic that in the good old WM this functionality has been since the beginning of time, isn't it? Of course, anything is possible, and company employees have already said that they think about some improvements that were not included in the first release of the platform, but do not expect that on the first released (and purchased by you =)) phones you will copy something between applications .
Microsoft has absolutely and irrevocably confirmed that the WP7 Series will not support copy and paste. The data-processing API (data-detection) is built into the text-processing API, which will recognize phone numbers and addresses, but according to Microsoft, most users, including Office users, do not actually need the clipboard functionality. Well then ... do we respectfully disagree? Of course, this will calm down.
