    Here is what I did to copy and paste the EPG URL into the EPG URL slot, thru the MOL2 Playlist option.
    I understand that you know most of these steps and my explaining may look overboard, but it is there as a complete step by step walk thru for all of us
    I also understand that Shooty had it's basics on what is outlined below, figured earlier and that got me going in right direction... and as well I see the confusion was on how to get that PASTE function to appear on the EPG URL line (which was the wireless mouse that helped with that).
    Thnx guys..... and here it is...

    Install ES File Explorer .. it can be found in your Market under the 'ETC' category.
    On your desktop create a text document (Notepad doc) and name it anything you want.
    Open it and paste the EPG URL that you want added to the Playlist slot.
    Transfer that text file onto USB drive and insert into T3.
    Open the ES File Explorer on your T3.
    You should see your USB storage device.
    Look below at the table of options for the Note Editor and open it.
    Up to this point I have been using the T3 remote, but these next steps work better with an attached mouse to your T3.

    Once the Note Editor has been opened it will show any text file's content.
    You should see your full EPG URL that you pasted earlier.
    Up top in the Tool Bar is an Edit function, Click it.
    Then highlight the URL line with your mouse function, and then double tab the line. Two edit balloon tools should appear... Expand the two balloons to capture the complete line.
    Up in the toolbar again is a Copy option. Click it.

    Exit ES Explorer and open MOL2 and open a new Playlist slot.
    Highlight the EPG URL slot, and with the onscreen keyboard removed.....
    This next step requires a wireless mouse attached. I have tried in many ways with the supplied remote but have found only the wireless mouse works for this (or a wireless keyboard would too I suppose).
    Ok, with the EPG line highlighted with the blinking text cursor, right click (or was that left click) and hold the mouse button, while hovering over that line.
    A balloon edit tool will appear and the PASTE option will also appear too.
    Select PASTE and your previously copied URL will appear.

    This same method can be used to add a Playlist URL, if that is the way you are connecting.

    If anyone knows of a way to copy the URL to T3 clipboard or emulated storage and paste from there, please do tell ... that would eliminate the need for the ES File Explorer.
    Thnx

    *added note.....
    If you are doing this same process for the Server URL, then you must press the Connect option after that line has been entered. Pressing the Connect will save the server slot with that URL entered.
    You need to do this because once you enter the Server URL and then open the ES File Explorer to do this process with the EPG URL, your server slot and info already entered will be lost because it was not first saved.
