    select text

    I was playing around trying to know my Droid better and ran into the option Menu/More/Select text, and it has a message said text has been save on clipboard.
    Where is clipboard? How do I delete the text I accidentally saved?
    I wish they covered all these features in the owner's manuel.

    Same concept as on a computer. It's just some space in memory. No need to worry about deleting it.

    "send email" or "copy" options
