Help Using "Mouse" on Milestone ?

[webvan]

Looking at the pictures of the Droid/Milestone I always thought it had an optical trackpad (or possibly fingerpring recognition) but it seems not...unless mine is defective but a search didn't bring up anything so...

Anyway I noticed that when I'm browsing, pressing the shift button will pop-up a mouse...that can't seem to be moved, other than by tapping somewhere else on the screen and then pressing shift again.

Am I missing something?

Pressing and holding shift allows you to select and copy text from the page you're viewing. The pointer shows where you are but it's not a "mouse" as such.

Thanks, with the selecting being done with the finger then?
