Default Droid X feature I havent seen on any other Android

I haven't seen anyone else post this if its redundant my apologies and I will delete the thread. One of the coolest features about the Droid X I have not seen on any other Android phone is the bubble that comes up and lets you navigate through text. I spoke to several other Droid owners and they didn't even know about. Here is a pic http://bit.ly/ctnvLS thoughts??? I want to get the Droid X forum more active and even though we arent flashing roms yet we can sure root and customize our devices. Would love to hear feedback good or bad.

Not sure if that is an inherent part of Motoblur or the new multi-touch keyboard, but it's a godsend!

It's a shameless ripoff of the iPhone text navigation system, but it's so brilliant I can forgive them.

Yeah the DX is the only android phone that can do this, along with the red bubble marker.

This is pretty cool. But, i just came from a droid incredible and it does this with a bit more flair. Once you get the bubble you can do things like copy and paste. Or, select the text you're navigating.
