From: Mark on 2 Aug 2010 04:35 Noticed recently that when composing texts I'd get a red underline on misspelled words. Now I've just found out that if you double-tap a word when composing (in most applications it seems) you get a cut/copy/paste/replace pop-up with alternate word suggestions/spellings! Very useful indeed! An iOS4 thing I assume? Cheers ... Mark
