Question

I have a listbox with a datatemplate

<Button Name="ButtonSortDate" Content="Date" Grid.Column="1" Click="ButtonSortDateClick" />
<Button Name="ButtonSortABC" Content="ABC.." Grid.Column="2" Click="ButtonSortABCClick" />
<!--ItemsSource="{Binding NotesCollection}"-->
<ListBox Name="ListBoxNotes" 
    Grid.Row="1" Grid.ColumnSpan="3"                             
    DoubleTap="DeleteDoubleTap">
    <ListBox.ItemTemplate>                            
        <DataTemplate>
            <StackPanel Margin="0,0,0,17" Width="432" Height="78" >
                <TextBlock Text="{Binding NoteText}" TextWrapping="Wrap" Style="{StaticResource PhoneTextExtraLargeStyle}" />
                <TextBlock Text="{Binding Date}" TextWrapping="Wrap" Margin="12,-6,12,0" Style="{StaticResource PhoneTextSubtleStyle}"/>
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
    </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>

I want to be able to dobble tap an item in the List to delete it, but I cant find any way to get the clicked item, only the selected (Which is not always the same)

If I for example tap Item 1 in the list and dobble taps the second, then the ListBox.SelectedItem will be the first Item.

How do I get Item 2? Would be nice if I could put an event on the item itself somehow in the template

The e.OriginalSource should be some element within the item (e.g. one of the TextBlocks), it has the item as DataContext, so you should be able to remove the item from your source collection like this:

var item = (FrameworkElement)e.OriginalSource;
Data.Remove((MyItemType)item.DataContext);
