**QuickOffice[http://www.quickoffice.com/quickoffice_pro_iphone/faqs/]  has rather nice handles for spreadsheet ranges[http://d1j0ez72nmjkmb.cloudfront.net/iphone/user_guide_images/qs_formula_builder.jpg][http://d1j0ez72nmjkmb.cloudfront.net/iphone/user_guide_images/select_range.png]. Two colors (such as blue, white) used for handles are practical because of nice contrasting. More handles: [http://d1j0ez72nmjkmb.cloudfront.net/iphone/user_guide_images/rotate_resize_image.jpg] (note the extra handle for rotation).
