This is a good question. Yes you can paste the number on the Keypad screen. Yes you can also edit the number by either using the X button (located to the right of the dial button) OR you can Swipe Left or Right on the number to edit.

There are, however, some restrictions to how you can edit an entered phone number. You can only edit the number from the end. You cannot insert your cursor in the middle of the phone number to edit the number(s). Of course, you can always add digits to the end of the number.
